Head-to-head is only relevant between tied players. This has always been the case in pretty much every tournament that I can remember. | ||

maybe something similar to the FXO-logo ( ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/images/teams/icons/109.png){kind=icon} ) would look pretty nice. Having the mYi logo and the text "mYi" right next to it in fat letters | ||

If you're doing tiebreakers, it makes perfect sense to attempt to break the tie first without involving non-tied people. Jjakji wasn't tied. Don't involve him unless you can't break the tie between the three tied players otherwise. That's just unnecessary complication. | ||

Guess what, he lost to both the better player of the day (jjakji) and the worse player of the day (shine). It is accepted because it is agreed upon by convention to save time, but to make the argument that it shows who is the better player is fancy magical logic. But you can make that argument for pretty much every tournament format currently in use, that they favor convenience and scheduling over the highest accuracy of determining who the best player is. If you want to know for sure 100% who the best player is, good luck hosting a tournament the scale of GSL and having every single player duke it out against every other one in a Bo7/Bo9. | ||

I give up trying to explain such simple logic to the daily whiners whenever their favored player loses or a player they don't like wins. Sigh. I'm not a very good keyboard warrior | ||

If you want to know for sure 100% who the best player is, good luck hosting a tournament the scale of GSL and having every single player duke it out against every other one in a Bo7/Bo9. Ideally, they should do a 3-way tie-breaker round robin like the OSL. But even if they don't, I can accept that they just let the player through that beat the other two with the same score because everyone already agrees to it. I just have a problem with people claiming that proves that one player played better than the others who have the same score. That is a false claim using faulty logic. He doesn't "deserve" to advance over the other two any more than if we changed the tie-breaker condition to coin tosses. My point is: it is a time-saver and nothing more. | ||
