Bug in Swiss Tournament pairing & scoring

Hi,

I observed a number of bugs in a recent tournament ( automatic site-wide tournament, 13x13 swiss style, blitz, https://online-go.com/tournament/11938 ), in particular:

OBSERVED BEHAVIOR:
Scoring:

  • Player robins (me) received 5 points, in spite of the tournament being limited to 4 rounds

Pairing:

  • One player (genich68) received 3 consecutive byes, getting only one actual game
  • The winning player robins did not play any of the other high-scoring players. (Total score of opponents = 5)

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:

  • Score should equal the number of wins + byes, it cannot be greater than the number of rounds
  • Winning players should be paired with other winning players
  • No player should have more than one “bye”

Yeah this is definitely a major problem and something I’m looking at.
