After some deliberation, I've decided that this is the fairest way to proceed:
S21-> A B C1 C2 D1 D2 E1 E2 E3 F1 F2 G1 G2 G3 G4 G5
New A 5 2
New B 2 2 1.5 1.5
New C 3 3 3 2.5 2.5
New D 1.5 1.5 1.5 1.5 2 3 3
New E 1 1 2 1.5 1.5 3 4 1 2 1.5 1 1.5
New F 1 1.5 1.5 2 2 2.5 3 3 1.5 3
New G 1 1 1.5 3 2.5 1.5 2.5
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total 7 7 6 6 5 5 5 6 6 6 7 5 8 7 4 7
I was able to avoid using 3-way playoffs, but unfortunately, there are still some 3-way unresolved ties that have to happen. Even more unfortunately, I was unable to find a way to resolve the ties in such a way that no playoffs depend on the results of these ties without relegating some players who were told they wouldn't be relegated. So we're going to start the tiebreakers and all of the playoffs that we can right now, and finish them all as soon as possible. For those games that are starting today, your deadline is
Saturday, May 6th. If you have to play a tiebreaker and then a playoff, I'll let you know - but please play fast.
Thanks for your patience! And good luck in these high-pressure tiebreaker/playoff games! :D
