Hello
Please change something!!
Today there were 7 players in the 19th chess tournament. And only 3 rounds were played...!??
There are already few participants. Why can't we play with a small number?
in the round system with everyone done??
This is not a programming problem!
I've written about this before recently.
There is no answer or I don't know how to look for it.
Please change something!!
always
The chess tournament ended unexpectedly.

There were actually 5 players because the others dropped out and didn't play any rounds.
Yes,
In an ideal world, there could be a circular system.
But this is an online tournament where
1) People may be late
2) People can leave the tournament early
We also have a separate topic about this in the forum: https://www.vint.ee/et-ee/forum/thread/3707/
One solution, however, is to draw pairs of players a second time (like in a nail tournament) - would that be a better solution?

No.
To pass the time, you could of course have a tournament where you play chess for one round and nails for the other.

There was the following comment about this in the chess room:
antssr: I can't write in the forum, write here, playing the same opponent in a chess tournament again is not a good solution, the tournament is exactly for that, so that you can play with different players

Well, I talked about this exact topic last night and I've been saying all along that this thing needs to be humane and sorted out. There's no need to listen to Metsa here at all, he's just rambling and spinning! The options that have been proposed in the main hall are still there and I don't understand why they can't be implemented!
In real life and with real people, if a group of people get together and still want to find out who is better, a solution is found pretty quickly and everyone can play, but it seems that neither Meikop nor AI can handle this.
rabapalm suggested the following: with up to 8 players, the game is played in a round robin system, with more players, in a Swiss system.
Let's assume that there are 6 players in the tournament and 5 rounds are played in a round robin format.
During the 1st round, 1 to 2 players are added.
Will there still be 5 rounds played and not everyone can play each other, or will rounds be added?
How is a number drawn for latecomers in the tournament table?
Let's assume that there are 8 players in the tournament and 7 rounds are played in a round-robin format.
During the 1st round, 1 to 3 players are added.
How do you switch from round robin to Swiss in round 2?

This antcccp is a great runner like antsuonu and writes the same way, if I read correctly, I've participated in about 10 tournaments with him in about 3 years
Mets, there will be no additions once the tournament has started, except in some cases when there are less than 8 starters and if the upper limit of the round robin system is set to 8, then the blitz would last a maximum of 70 minutes breaks; if there are up to 10 participants in the round robin system, then 1.5 hours - actually normal. In that case, latecomers could be allowed during the first round so that the maximum number of participants is either 8 or 10. Nothing complicated. If you have already registered initially for more than 8 or in the second case for more than 10, then you will automatically go to the Swiss system. And if there are up to 4 or 5 participants left, then the game will be played in the round robin system, but twice.
