Can someone tell me how the tie breaker points are calculated. You have 3 players all with 5 wins and the tie breaker determines the round winner. How is it calculated?
yes its in the help page on the tournaments home :)
If 2 players in a group have the same score then both will advance. Tournament Directors can choose to use an additional tie-break method (we use the Neustadtl score) which factors in the strength of the opponents. If two players have the same score and the same Tie Break score, both will advance.Below is an example of how the tie breaking system works:Group #-- 1 2 3 Point Tie Break1. Bob X 1 1 0 1 3 4.52. John 0 0 X 1 0.5 1.5 2.253. Mary 1 0 0.5 0 X 1.5 3.75A player's tiebreak score is calculated by adding the sum of the player's points they have defeated to half the sum of the player's points they have drawn against.Bob won two games against John and one game against Mary. So Bob gets 2x1.5 points from John and 1.5 points from Mary, which sums up to 4.5 tiebreak points.John won one game and drew one game against Mary. So John gets 1.5x1.5 points from Mary, which sums up to 2.25 tiebreak points.Mary won one game against Bob and drew one game against John. So Mary gets 1x3.0 points from Bob and 0.5x1.5 points from John, which sums up to 3.75 tiebreak points.
mine says 17 18% every game i play, how much pecentage will go down?
I now have had two tourneys start on their own with the "automatically start when full" button unchecked!
If chess.com comes up with sanctioned tournaments for those who have a low RD, such as (85&under), maybe that would be a more fair tourney, with better results?
Also, I have noticed that many tournaments (ex: 1000-1400) end up with players rated over 2200. If we have a standard deviation, then this problem wouldn't exist.
Can someone explain to me how tie breaker points are determined. I tied for 1st but didn't have the tie breaker points to advance.
