So today I was playing in tbe tournament, and the following situation happened:
I and player x had 4/4, and behind us there were quite a few players with 3/4.
To great amazement by all participants, we - two players with 4/4 - were not paired against each other, but against players who had 3/4.
With just 4 rounds played and over 20 players participating, it is absolutely impossible that no other pairing could be made because of people playing each other twice on lower boards.
On the chat I found that the same happened yesterday - 2 top players were not paired against each other in the last round.
This way someone can score 5/5 and lose because of tie break.
Extravagating, someone can score 5/5 in all tournaments and never have a chance to qualify.
I suggest something be done about it immediately.
I include screenshots showing the situation.
