Hi all
I've seen yesterday that the top 5 competitors now play in 10 winning sets and I think that it's a good improvement, thanks Olivier!
 I have carefully watched Chunky's performance, and noticed that he won 3/2 against Japp, then 3/2 against Kubiak, then 3/2 against Capoeriste in very uncertain fights in 3 winning sets, before he finally reached rank 2 and only lost 10/6 against Bob. Since there are only 2 more rounds before the end and no time for the hall of fame to stabilise, my question is : is it possible to apply the 10 sets rule not only for the 5 top competitors but for the 10 or 15 top ones? Do you see any inconvenient in that change? The round would last a bit longer but this would really decrease the random factor for the last 2 days...
