Pit for LM
Auto-translated
Let me clearly state the question being discussed.
What are the possible ways to determine the best player in a tournament when conditions are equal?
Possible scenarios:
1. Round-robin tournament. Equal number of points scored. With a large number of participants (by the way, I don't know how many), the Berger coefficient is used. Who has the advantage?
2. Cup tournament. Elimination games. A draw or a game is not played. Who advances?
3. Final. How to determine the winner if the finalists don't play? For example, if their schedules don't align?
If we provide a clear criterion, will it lead to the player with the advantage simply not playing under various pretexts and waiting for a technical win?
We need to come up with all possible options, and perhaps vote on them. Then, each organizer can choose the most suitable and widely accepted solution for their tournament rules.
Here are some proposed options:
1. Seasonal rating.
2. Permanent rating.
3. Speed of playing all games in a round-robin tournament.
4. Additional games.
5. Coin toss or dice roll.
6. Finding the ultimate skill meter.
Suggest more options and discuss what has been proposed.
