In a recent major meet, when tallying the results from the individual events, I won my age group, but now someone is saying I actually was tied by someone else. I won three events, and got third in the other one (there was a 4 event limit).
The person who supposedly tied me had two wins and two seconds. Each place had a different point value. 1st:10 points, 2nd: 8 points, 3rd: 7 points, and so on....
when you add up my points, I have 37(10+10+10+7)
when you add up the other swimmer's points, he has 36(10+10+8+8).
It is impossible for my place to be tied unless someone else won atleast 3 events, correct? (there were only 6 events per age group available).
There have been other ridiculus issues like this at the meet, too. Please, someone assure me that 37 is, in fact more than 36!
