The round-robin system is the best option.
It brings together the best players. In reality, you can finish with a score of 7-2 after starting with 0-2 and still win. And there's a good example of this even in this tournament: LuckyF, who started this discussion, began with 2 losses, but now has a chance to at least finish in the top 3. With a double-elimination bracket, he would have been eliminated first. That's how it is.
The fact that there are technical issues is, unfortunately, a shame. Before the next offline event, there will definitely be a discussion about what to do with participants who have been disqualified.
Regarding the games that don't seem to matter, look at the bracket – we will definitely have a decisive game, because I designed the draw specifically so that it would happen.
And I completely agree with Gomunguls that a round-robin format is the most objective, and with 10 participants, there is no need for a double-elimination bracket.
And the idea that he would have been eliminated immediately because he lost in the first rounds is also not a certainty; who knows how best-of-three or later best-of-one matches in the lower bracket would have played out. But if he had been eliminated, it would mean he hadn't developed his skills enough; it happens:smile04: but the remaining players would have been fully motivated for all the games.
