I'M BACK!

I was just telling Chris about some software I wrote to score our SUMO
matches for the Lafayette club.  It sort of combines the elimination with a

several times with much success.  It has made the scoring invisible.  But it
will need a little modification.

One question, when neither robot gets on the platform, is that a draw, or do
BOTH robots get 1 loss?

Chris, I'm sure software exists, but we need to decide the format before the software can tell us who plays whom. Ok, here's how you run single-elimination, for reference: Let's say you have 8 competitors: A thru H. I'll use the abbreviation "W1" (...) (22 years ago, 11-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
