In Response To: New standard method for resolving 3-way ties on the ABT (Rich Munitz)

"receiving it dwarfs first round byes by an order of magnitude"

The extra bye that players B and C had in the Swiss are likely to be in a later round instead of the first round.

Also no matter when it occurred two players are really 6-2 while the other is 7-2. Focusing on when the byes occurred is obscuring the fact that having B and C play an extra round is simply evening the playing field.

I doubt I am going to convince you about this but I am wondering if you have an answer to the basketball game situation I proposed?
