If two players have same number of points,Tournament rule here is,higher place
will be awarded to the one who has higher progressive score.
If you lose the first game in a swiss tournament of many participants,your
progressive score would sink and outcome affects your perfomance.
I don't know if the above score evaluation has any effect on progressive scores.
