Go up one level in this thread

  Hi Omid,

   I thank you for having an open mind on this. As for my thoughts.
  I don't like A. IMHO, B is better.

  It may take more than 7 rounds to decide in 2004. If Rebel, Crafty, TheKing,
  Lambchop and Tiger (to name just a few) and/or a few others compete. It will
  take more than 7 rounds to decide. The number of rounds to decide depends
  on the competition.

  My dislike for A is the following: The 5th placed competitor in the 2nd
  group may be stronger than one or more of the top 4 in the first group.
  Thus format A introduces a considerable amount of luck. IMHO that would not
  be good.

   Again, thanks to all for an open mind.
