Hi, I encountered a problem generating new pairings via the script "pair". I tried to simulate a "real" tournament [1] with Chess-Tournament-Swiss. I managed to get identical results for the first two rounds, but was unable to get (any) pairings for the third round. $> perl pair > logfile 1 players in group 3's S1, only 0 in S2. at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/Games/Tournament/Swiss/Procedure/FIDE.pm line 518. The messages from "perl pair" to STDOUT are attached to this mail (logile). The output ends with: Floating Down: 17 12 [4] 17 12 => [5] 12 17 14 18 19 20 C1, B1,2 test: ok, no unpairables C2, x=0 C3, p=0 Homogeneous. C4, S1 & S2: & C5, ordered: 17 & C6, If needed I can provide the yaml-files for the first two rounds. I use Chess-Tournament-Swiss-0.04 with Perl v5.8.8 on Linux 2.6.18-4-k7 #1 SMP (Debian Etch). If you need any further informations I'll gladly provide them. Best regards Christian [1] http://www.lsvmv.de/turniere/erg/eon_2007a_paar.htm

The first 7 tables are paired identically in the 3rd round, but the 8th table is a problem. The problem gets worse with tables 9,10. Show quoted text

That's strange. I just tried that and got a different error: C11, x=p=1 already, no more x increases in Bracket 4. C14, Bracket 4, now p=0 Moving down all Bracket 4, to 5. Bracket 4: 12 => Bracket 5: 12 14 18 19 20 I appear to have been editing C14 in revision 1204. But there's a bug there. 12 is moved down but 17 wasn't. I am surprised that in the real tournament 12 and 17 were paired: Show quoted text

> [1] http://www.lsvmv.de/turniere/erg/eon_2007a_paar.htm

This is surprising because 17 is a downfloat and 12 was floated up in the previous round, meaning it will be upfloated twice.

How was the tournament paired? With a computer program? I'll have to look into this some more.

The HTMLization has wrecked column alignment of the pairing table for round 3, the one where the module fails to pair. I wonder if a one-space indentation will prevent that. I am not using any tabs. On Tue, 21 Aug 2007, Greg Matheson via RT wrote: Show quoted text

ahh, I understand the output a bit better now. But I still have to investigate how the FIDE pairing algorithm works. Until now I didn't do that in detail -- I just ran your scripts. Show quoted text

At the moment I can't comment on that. But 'pairingtable' gives the same group at my system. Show quoted text

> How was the tournament paired? With a computer program?

Yes, it was paired with a computer program. As far as I know, an old version of SwissChess [1] was used. I don't know exactly which version, but it must have been a "before 8.xx" version (since it was not a CD version). I think, it's quite possible that (at least older versions of) SwissChess didn't get the pairings right in all cases. Thanks for looking into this!

If you want to continue discussing of what the correct FIDE pairing should be, an appropriate chess talk site to seek others' opinions might be the Arbiters Corner at http://www.chesschat.org. Do you know of other sites where there is discussion of the FIDE Swiss rules? Show quoted text

I'm not making any claims for Games::Tournament::Swiss::FIDE is better, but I think an open source pairing program is a good idea.

thanks a lot for the new version! It solved the "round 3 problem". To me, the pairings for round 3 seem to be okay. But I encountered two other problems with version 0.05: 1. This one should be easy to fix. It seem's to me that you commented out some lines in the script "pair". (I guess for testing purposes.) Namely the comment signs on lines 60-66, 78 and 93 looked strange to me -- as well as line 130 ("=begin text"). With your version I wasn't able to pair the second round of a new tournament. The pairings of the first round weren't recognized. After uncommenting the lines given above (or commenting it out in case of line 130) everything worked fine. 2. I went along with my simulation of the real tournament and made a (very) quick check: I entered only draws for round 3, tried to get pairings for round 4 (that worked), entered only draws for round 4 and tried to get pairings for round 5. The last step failed. Unfortunately I'm in a hurry right now and will be away from keyboard for some days, I can't investigate further at the moment. But I'would gladly provide further tests -- maybe also by simulating the pairings of other "real world chess tournaments". I'm not absolutely sure that my problems weren't a result of tinkering with your code (see problem 1 above). Show quoted text

Thanks for the tip. First I should take a closer look at the FIDE Swiss rules and than I would like to visit chesschat.org. Show quoted text

Actually, I think an open source pairing program is an excellent idea! A while ago I tried SOSS [1] but I had some problems -- if I remember correctly both with its graphical interface and with the pairing algorithm [2]. Though I took some time to search the web, I didn't find another open source pairing program. Additionally, I like the idea to have a small program which just does the pairings without any GUI (or other user interface) problems. I'm enthusiastic that your module Games::Tournament::Swiss will do just that. Best regards Christian [1] http://www.idt.mdh.se/~csg/soss/index-en.html [2] That doesn't mean, that SOSS doesn't work. Probably I just didn't try hard enough.

Can we close this bug and open another bug? I'm not too sure about how to do that. Perhaps you can log into rt.cpan.org and just submit another bug. Show quoted text

Look at README for what I did to pair and my plans. Which perhaps I shouldn't have. Anway just use pairstately instead. Can you cut and paste your email into a new bug report?
