Can you check how they are doing the pairings?  It looks like they are using the
current sum of opponent's scores (the tiebreak) instead of the pre-event ranking
to sort people within a score group.

Of course, this would be terrible if pre-event rankings were pretty solid (as in
human events) but maybe it is a good idea in this case. (!?)
