    Jumping in here with a question so that maybe othes can see the answer also

    With the new WPPR 5.2, how will a Round Robin tournament be in regards to TGP and wppr?
    If there is 10 players, double round robin, will that be 18 games counting for the TGP? (beat the other 9 players twice).

    Quoted from ifpapinball:

    That's correct! We see that format used quite a bit actually.

    yeah its a great format for deciding the best player amongst a group of people, eliminating more of the randomness a knockout tournament often can introduce. Also a good social format

    Quoted from chuckwurt:

    Can you expand more on how this format works? I am all for less randomness and more social aspects haha

    Sure, its quite basic really, I use matchplay-app for setting and executing this.
    So Double round robin is that every player plays two games against every other player. Thats it, really.

    One game against every player, makes it slightly more lucky/unlucky ball, but with a double round robin then usually if a player wins both he is the better..that evening at least Will probably also have a small playoff best of 3 games with the top 4, but thats just me. I like 4 player matchplay.

    Quoted from chuckwurt:

    how do you decide what games the players play each match?

    If I am to have it at my place, where i have got and twd, it wont be a problem hehe, but else Matchplay will randomize and assign games for people each round. Have you tried Matchplay? (matchplay.events )
