Re: Magic Scheduling Algorithms

Mike
said:

b-1
2-3
4-5
6-7
Next round, rotate the non-byes
clockwise:
b-2
4-1
6-3
7-5 <
Continue until it's done:
b-4 b-6 b-7
b-3 b-5
6-2 7-4 3-6 5-7<1-3
7-1 3-2 5-4 1-6
2-7
3-5 5-1 1-2 2-4 4-6

Notice the <'s I added.
5 vs 7, as well as a few other matches are
repeated. And I see where the mistake is.

Round 2 is
right
b-2
4-1
6-3
7-5

Then here's what you did, and what SHOULD have been
done for round 4.
Bad: Good:
b-4 b-4
6-2
6-2
7-1 7-1
3-5 5-3
There's no difference, except
when you subsequently rotate. So take what Mike has,
and beginning in R3, switch 3 and 5. Wish my team
luck at NAQT this weekend!
