I believe admin function for Cup Games is simply not flexible enough. With confidence and certainly, I believe that players shouldn't advance evenly in each group beause some players may not play enough games and/or don't try to schedule a matchup with opoonent well enough to be elligible to advance to the knockout round. If we don't change this limitation, there's possibility that Cup games are going to lot less fair.
Check my cup example:
https://www.tus-wa.com/cups/cup-256/Matenga agreed to drop from the cup due to busy schedule and generousity. I believe dienadel85 definitely deserve to be in knockout round instead of huskov because he actually participated well in the tournament unlike good number of other players. I do not wish to switch players because it's already past the due date for group pairment.
At Least, please put dienadel85 to the knockout round.
Please trust me in this. And here are examples, and I'm not saying every cup has to be like this. I just want cup admins to have more freedom on which players to advance to knockout round.
==Examples of Ranking of Advancement to Knockout Round== (Just my way of doing things.)
1st Example:
First Group
Player 1 3 wins 0 loss 1st
Player 2 2 wins 1 loss 2nd
Player 3 1 wins 2 loss 4th
Player 4 0 wins 3 loss 8th
Second Group
Player 5 2 wins 0 loss 3rd
Player 6 0 wins 1 loss
Player 7 0 wins 1 loss
Player 8 0 wins 0 loss
Third Group
Player 9 1 wins 0 loss 7th
Player 10 1 wins 1 loss 5th(2ppl)
Player 11 1 wins 1 loss 5th(2ppl)
Player 12 0 wins 1 loss
Fourth Group
Player 13 0 wins 0 loss
Player 14 0 wins 0 loss
Player 15 0 wins 0 loss
Player 16 0 wins 0 loss
(Which means ppl shouldn't expect even number of ppl to advance in each group.)
2nd Example:
First Group
Player 1 1 wins 0 loss 2nd
Player 2 0 wins 2 loss 3rd
Player 3 0 wins 0 loss
Player 4 0 wins 0 loss
Second Group
Player 5 2 wins 0 loss 1st
Player 6 0 wins 1 loss 4th (This player won once and lost twice in bo3 game.)
Player 7 0 wins 1 loss (This player does not have any win in bo3 game.)
Player 8 0 wins 0 loss
