Actually, since I have written this I have come up with another explanation and that would be that you are breaking a tie by only choosing head to head games in the final round as opposed to the entire tourney. This seems to me to be the opposite to the practice established in our auto tourneys, which was why I never considered this outcome until now.
I am baffled at why anyone would initiate a competition and then choose to declare the winner using arbitrary methods; when both players are clearly tied at the top and when a single game could settle the matter simply and so much more fairly. I would have expected the Tie-breaker rules to specify that scores reset each round, if they indeed do reset, just like it is specified in Auto Tourneys. In the absence of that specification, it is CC's practice to use scores from the entire tourney; not a particular round. But I am also not sure which is more important, the actual wording of the rules in the tourney or what you actually intended as a T.O.
I don't know what it is about this one Shane. The stars must have been aligned the wrong way or something . I have never before questioned a T.O. about a rule. I'll leave it in your hands to review this to ensure that I am not still owed an opportunity to compete for this win. If you would be so kind as to take a quick look, I'd appreciate it. Thanks and thank you for putting off this event for us.
