Now that it has been ruled that we are using the "Isotropic" seating method, it shouldn't matter in what seat that a player gets their wins from.  This only holds if, after a tie game, player order is switched.

Note that for the Robz method, the math works out such that if the leading player in the 3-2 started in the second seat--win or lose--he had more breaks and therefore wins.  Only if the leader started in the first seat does the sixth game happen.

Kirian, the scoring procedure you have posted in the results thread looks good.

I am excited to begin play!

based on the discussion here, i posted an idea on getsatisfaction requesting a tournamnet mode for professional games. If some people care enough to support the idea, we can get it on their shortlist for things to implement.

Tournament mode
Edit Subject i'd really like to see the possibility to play a series of games (best of 5, best of 7,..) against the same player in pro mode, with the implemented rule that the loser of the game is allowed to start the next game. In case of a tied game the player that was 2nd player goes first in the next game.

That would allow people to organize and run small tournaments. I think the f.ds community would be very intrested in such a feature. right now you can only play unranked games, and one player has to quit as long as the right order is established.

Unranked games just feel wrong for a Tournament. and it also gives some sort of advantage to the host of the game, because he can decide what sort of kingdoms are played, by using predefined kingdoms.

Ideally i see a button "play series of games" with a field where you enter the numer of games for the series (7 for a best of 7games).
