Yes, this is what a true Swiss elimination is !

There's plenty of time today for you two to play 3 matches if required, and that will only occur 25% of the time since Bill needs to win the first two matches.

Note also, that the result here with only 31 players is rather rare since, unless your name is Rory, it is quite unlikely to have someone go 10-0 and my sims show that often with 31 players, when someone goes 10-0 there may not even be anyone else left with less than 3 losses.

Usually this format with only 31 players (I hope more come next year!!) ends after 11 rounds and only very rarely does it go past 12 rounds.

With a more usual attendance of about 50 players, typically one is going to have to go 8-3 to place as there will be too many at 7-3 to give a prize to.
