A few thoughts:
- They say this is terrible for television, but I bet they love it! I wasn't aware of this tournament until this story. TV tries its best to manufacture strife and drama.
- In Go you simply aren't allowed to repeat a position (ko). I wonder how profoundly it would change chess if you simply weren't allowed threefold repetition. Or if you weren't allowed it within the first x moves?
- What if a draw earned you 0.4 points instead of 0.5? Maybe that doesn't matter with so few games, or does it?
- sanderjd 11y agoI've always found it interesting that that's basically how most soccer games work, except that a draw is worth 1/3 instead of your proposed 2/5.
