I think this distribution is a foolish decision because the "Novice" tournament involves relatively unknown players, and it's possible that the strongest participants ended up in the same group. And to eliminate someone just because they were unlucky in the draw?! Are we here to haggle over shawarma at a market?:confused:

P.S. It would have been better to use the seasonal rating, for example...

There will only be one winner. So everyone in the group had a chance to take first place; if they all lost twice, then it's a matter of luck. Would it have been better to play the group games again for two weeks? And this is just one group. In the previous novice tournament, the losers' final, the decisive game was decided by chance. justobserver was just unlucky. If there is a solution to this problem, I would like to hear it.

P.S. You contradict yourself. If they are novices, how can you determine the strongest based on the seasonal rating? One might play 15 games and win 2-3, while the other might have played only one game for the report and won. Who would be ranked higher?
