Outwitters WORLD CUP Winner - Alvendor (SWEDEN)

[Thrutchy]

Here are the reason I like the Swiss format:
* everyone stays involved during the whole tournament
* gives a reasonable ranking for all players involved rather than just one winner that single elimination gives
* similarly skilled players play each other in each round. Using ranking/points/wins from leagues can be used for initial ordering. Compare this with single elimination where the seeded best plays the seeded worst in the first round.
* handles a non-power-of-2 number of player, but an even number of players is better
* can handle people dropping out
* tie breakers (which affects game-play) can be avoided
* about the same number of rounds as single elimination (but a lot more overall games)
