BLITZ TOURNAMENT

Not really... you take the result as a basis... but the place isn't the result! If it doesn't affect anything, why not do it the right way?

Well, in reality, the player rating is calculated based on the occupied place and the number of places.

If it doesn't affect anything, why not do it the right way?

And besides, why is it wrong?
After all, you agreed that we count only the result, and the number of people who ended up in one place is not taken into account. Therefore, Dmitry_A_S's place should be third!
Where is the mistake here?

Sincerely.
