Honestly, I didn't understand the principle behind the draw for the second stage. And how do Alex and God and Tvaryna and Kilgor play against each other if they've already played?! Is it just pure random chance?? For reference, usually they play crosswise, with the 1st place from one group playing against the 2nd place from the parallel group... :)
Pure random...
You can't please everyone... you were the first to express dissatisfaction with the random draw... it's impossible to think through all the nuances in the regulations right away...
Actually, there was a thought that with a precise crosswise scheme, you could potentially arrange to play against a specific opponent. That's why we opted for a random draw.
