Discussion about pairing with Gerlach's program
Keywords: Tournament, Software
The swedish go championship 2003 will use MacMahon version 2.43
There are six screens for adjusting the behaviour of the program:
Björn: The settings above are the defaults I got creating a new tournament. Arno: you should change the McMahon bar to something sensible. Depending on the top quartile of your players something like 4d-1d might be called for. Andre Engels: I use as my rule-of-thumb for setting the MacMahon bar that one makes the group above the bar as large as possible, but not larger than 12 (for a 5-round tournament). However, if you have a playing field that is small and with much spread, or already clearly divided into strength groups, you might do differently. The lower bar is often set at the strength of the weakest player participating; one might want to set it differently though.
