I guess I somehow missed the fact that if there is a tie in the game, you play to the next point. I also did not find this in the tournament guide. Did I just miss it after reading the whole thing through, if so, what page is it on?Thanks,Kirk
Rob,Does the head-to-head tiebreaker apply to multiplayer games, too? In other words, if two players played at the same table in an earlier round and they tie at the end, do we look at how they did when at the same table?Thanks!
I am not saying you play to the next point. The game ends when the required number of Lost Souls is rescued. If I end up with 6 rescued souls in a Type 1 game only 5 are counted unless I am tied with my opponent in that game. Then we count with 6th point.
Rob, Does the tie breaker apply to 2nd place. At a recent tournament in type 1-2player, the winner had 12 points. Three players had 9 points. The 4th place player had less lost soul differential but had beat the 2nd and 3rd place player. Should the 4th place player have taken 2nd place?1st place player - 12 points2nd place player - 9 points, 8 lost soul differential3nd place player - 9 points, 7 lost soul differential4th place player - 9 points, 6 lost soul differential (beat both the 2nd and 3rd place players in head to head matches)Thanks,Bill
2 packs = $6 Redemption Cash = $2 each (or a Prophets pack, or two blue packs, perhaps?)

Check Points -Tie (move to option 2)2. Check Head to Head result - Didn't Play (move to option 3)3. Lost Soul Differential
I would suggest continuing to use just game points/lost soul differential for determining pairings for the next round and only implement the head-to-head tie breaker at the end of the tournament.)
In a case like Bill's where the tie is for second or third place, do head to head results against the player that got 1st place affect the head-to-head tie breaker or just head to head results between those that are tied?
That sounds reasonable to me. Bleeding this into the other topic, Do you think an extra round might have cleared up the standings a bit or would it have further muddies the waters?
