Contest #20: Tournament

[Silverthorn]

Oh Blue Phoenix, what are these tie-break points in the score table? I don't understand how these are implemented..

afaik, in case two people have the same score, that tie is broken by the accumulated score of your opponents. The best and worst score of the opponents is discarded, the sum of the remaining is then deciding about the ranking. The stronger your opponents, the higher their score (and ultimately, the higher will you rank among those with the same score). That's at least how I interpreted the explanation in the ranking-table (check the question-mark next to the tie-break-points).
