Can anyone think of a truely fair tiebreaker?
I have to agree with this. I love the idea- I think it would be more fun to play in a tournament structured like that, and more fun to watch it as well- but I was wondering what exactly would have to be done about the ties. As tennispro mentioned, certain methods seem more appropriate for certain games- maybe there would be a different tie-breaker method each year that the GDC thought would work best with the game?
