We have a DRAW already, I am actually quite shocked. Keti could have thrown away any chance of winning the event now. |

What is the method used to determine the Scottish Champion in the event of a tie? |

It is some convoluted formula involving pints of milk consumed at breakfast and the phase of the moon.... |

"In the event of ties, titles and prize monies will be shared equally except in the Championship itself. The method of tie-break for the Championship only will the FIDE performance (w-we) of the players involved." |

Title should be decided by playoff, there is no fair method of tiebreak! |

The tiebreak rule is very unfair to Keti being the highest rated player.
Recently the tie-break rule was voted at the AGM and TPR was chosen.
If we take the simple scenario where players A (rated 2300) and B (rated 2200 ) play identical opponents, draw with each other, and beat the rest, player B would have the higher TPR.
If we use TPR then the result between the individual players should be excluded.
Better methods which I suggested but which were outvoted are (a) result between players (b) sonneberg-berger (c) quick-play play-off |
