Thanks guys - maybe the rules should be modified slightly, to something like
2.5b. A table of match results is posted each round. Its rows represent players and its columns represent opponents. A player/opponent entry represents that player's score in their match against that opponent. A score of 2 as a result of one win and one loss is reported as 3 in the match results table to distinguish it from two draws, but is still worth only 2 points. A player's points are listed at the end of his or her row.
Hey, total noob here - I'll probably enter this week's game, so I read all the rules as carefully as possible, and I got confused by the points section. It reads:
2.5a. For each match, a player earns 3 points per game win and 1 point per drawn game. However, a player that wins one game and loses the other earns only 2 points.
2.5b. A table of match results is posted each round. Its rows represent players and its columns represent opponents. Match results reflect the combined result of both games played in a match; 3 is a game win, 1 a drawn game, and 0 a game loss. A player's points are listed at the end of his or her row.
Looking at last week's results, I see that some matches resulted in scores of 2/2, and some in scores of 3/3. I'm confused about how 3/3 is ever possible, given 2.5a, and 2.5b doesn't even mention the possibility of a 2.
I'm sure I'm just missing something simple, but I'd like to understand.
