    ecko, if you want to play more games, play in round robin tournaments (where you will pretty much play a game against everyone). Swiss style tourneys are designed to determine a winner in as few games as possible.

    Oh ok, well all the tournaments I played in so far were swiss style then. Are those round robin tournaments popular?

    The problem is that round-robin only exists for 2 and 3 player/team games. Rumor is some people are trying to figure out how to do 4, 5, 6 etc. round-robin tourneys, but we don't have then yet.

    It's crazy that Wargear has enough mathematicians to solve a round-robin tournament math problem that has yet to be solved...

    Does the site have a lot of mathematicians?  I've never been one to calculate odds myself, just seem to work better from instinct...

    Still working on it. 3 player RR was solved in 1939.

    Longest innings. Most deadly.

    Yes, but the participants were Belgium, Poland and Germany so it wasn't really fair from the get go.

    Where's 11's?
