@Carresan time to consider a scoring system change to throw off those that choose to exploit your fine contest.

Ahh, the losers' appeal for rule changes. A fundamental part of sport.

Sometimes sports need to adjust rules to protect the integrity of the game. You have found a good strategy. Pat yourself on the back but what kind of contest would it be if everyone just followed your strategy because it works so well. We would all be tied heading into the final and some sort of tiebreaker would have to determine the winner. If that is the case we could have just skipped the entire contest and just had everyone enter a winner, sets and tiebreaker for the final.

It's up to carresan. His show. I merely make suggestions.

That assumes this is the actual optimal strategy.

What I've been expecting someone to do is take it as a starting point and then improve upon it by applying actual knowledge of the sport.
