Yup, I've done that. So I see that TB indicates your opponent's ties, but a whole lot of things are really unclear to me:
- For TB - Is this only ties prior to your game, or after your game as well? Does each opponent who has ever tied add one point, or is it one point for each tie each opponent has ever had?
- More importantly, why are your opponents' ties relevant? I don't see why it's more of an accomplishment to play a tied opponent than one who's lost games... What about IDs? That could seriously throw things.
- How do they choose whether to use TB or buchholz? It appears TB is used first, but why?
Feel free to move this to a new topic if preferred.
Thanks!
