Anybody know exactly how fumbbl calculates the winner of a round robin tournament in the case of a 2 or 3 way tie?
This info would be useful in the User Guide as well.
Cheers,
Snorri. |

I fear it's alphabetic, but I hope I'm wrong. |

It's not alphabetic. See the tournament schedule here for an example:
SWL Conference
Three teams on 25pts and the Wicked C Dorfs went down as the winners. Wicked C Dorfs also didn't have the best head to head record here, nor the best TD differential. Am wondering if perhaps fumbbl does it on a coin toss.

Highest TR maybe? In Snorri's example it looks like Wicked C Dorfs had the highest TR at the end of the tourney (they've changed since then). |

Hmm, everytime I have played and ended on the same points as another coach, it have been alpabetic. Sorry if I was wrong. |
