*You apply these rules in this order to break a tie in round-robin:
1. Match win/loss ratio  (Note: it is not the number of matches won vs. number of losses - it is the ratio of wins to losses (i.e. No. of Wins divided by No. of  Losses - taken to 2 decimal points).
If there is a tie, then -
2. Game win/loss ratio - same thing - number of games won divided by number of games lost.
If there is a tie still, then -
3. If there is a 2-way tie then you isolate the two players; then apply the tie breaking rules starting from rule no. 1 to no. 2 with only those two tying players.
4. If there is a 3-way tie among three players, then you isolate the three players; then apply the tie breaking rules starting from rule no. 1 to no. 2 with only those three tying players.  If there is still a 2-way tie, it is just head-to-head match between those players, if A beats B, A wins even if they both are tied for a specific place in the overall round robin.
