Small update from Poland. Final will take place on Saturday, 30th of September. I've already planned my yearly trip to Cracow. Keep fingers crossed!
Interestingly we had to play by the 2nd edition farmer scoring rules (i.e. each city could only be scored once by a player). The organizer of the event told us that this is how they play at the World Championships so we should play by the same rules. Is that true? Are the 2nd edition rules in effect at the WC? I doubt that.
Congratulations on your 2nd place Leven. I'm sure it is not the position you would have preferred but it's still a great achievement!
How ridiculous that the tournament would use 2nd edition farming! I hope it didn't put you off your game too much though. Did anybody else comment on this? Also, how did the previous years champion do this year?
The method is to give each player a raw score of one point for each win and a half point for each draw. When used as an alternate scoring system, each player's Buchholz score is calculated by adding the raw scores of each of the opponents he played and multiplying this total by the player's raw score (Hooper & Whyld 1992). When used for tie-breaking among players with the same raw score, no multiplying is necessary and the sum of the raw scores of the opponents played is used to break ties (Golombek 1977). When used as a tie-break system, it is equivalent to the Solkoff system.
By the way, can a game end in a draw at the World Championship? Do both players get half victory points then?
