Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
There will be no blitz or Armageddon playoff.
Excellent decision. And congratulations on a successful event!
Can you explain the tie breaks you are using?
You mean Sonneborn–Berger? Add the final score of all the opponents a player has defeated to half the final score of all the opponents he drew. It’s been used for round-robin tournaments for a long time.
Someone else can describe the Koya System.
