Hey everyone,
Can someone explain to me how the Swiss system is being implemented in this particular case? I am familiar with this system from various chess tournaments and have even used online tools to create my own tournaments, where I input players’ ratings and let the tools do the work. In round one, I got exactly the same matchups, but for round two, I may need to impose some restrictions to come up with fair matchups. I am not saying anything is wrong with the system, but I am curious to know the exact rules being applied. For example, some tournaments have certain restrictions on players from specific countries in certain rounds.
Thanks for your answers.
