WHY THE FCK DID WE PLAY 3 GAMES IN THE FIRST ROUND? TO FIND OUT WHO IS TOP DOG AND WHO IS UNDERDOG? YOU THINK THERE ARE TOP DOGS AND UNDERDOGS HERE? NO ONE HERE KNOWS SHYT ABOUT CHESS, just some players who care and players who dont care, so "professionalizing" this tour is not neccessary. this is not Chess dedicated server. From my point of view i feel like shyt. I actually trained to achieve those 3-0, i actually didn't hope at all to have it... but now i see those who have 0 point go thru aswell as i.... this is not fair. I dont care who passes thru in the 3rd round. Those players shouldnt be in the second round at all. Imagine playing KOTIF tour or whatever (pg based) and losers go through also.... cmon!
I understand what you are saying.

The only reason, why round of 32 was added is, that the problem of 3 players with same points came out.

If the problem won't occur in any of 8 groups, we will continue as planned (with eight finals, top 2 continue).
If the problem occurs, there will be round of 32. The only other (fair) option is, that those 3 players play against each other 1 more time, but if the story repeats, this would increase the lenght of the tour for unknown time. For now, let's wait for the group round to end and we'll see what comes out, mabye a better solution will appear when all the games finish.



@red nova: will be done, no problem
