Full of absurdities, that goes far.
That was nothing against you, I realise there is no ideal way of doing this kind of tournament. Different pairings would give us many different rankings, right? So it's always a bit unfair in that case and there's always an element of bias if you pair by hand. To get more accurate results we would have to pit each solo against every other and work with that gigantic amount of data... or something.
No not necessarily. Definitely not many at least. In the beginning I made sure that solos would have more than one chance to get through. Then, I've worked largely with a tournament scheme e.g. a la Wimbledon. I've kicked out a biased voter. If I made one mistake then it was being too late with doing that (so yeah, there could have been some unfair eliminations vs Dave's or Janick's solos; I've heard no one complain about that). I've carefully spread the strongest solos (made sure they would not meet too early, as in seeds). So no. Nothing unfair about anything. Not an inch more than in other regular games. On the contrary, even.
No, not necessarily every time. Yes, if a pair consists of two different solos, of course. But a solo could still win or loose (again) if it were paired against another opponent.
