13-team round robin schedule questions
Which team sits out each round of a 13-team round robin?
Team 1 sits out round 1, team 12 round 2, team 10 round 3, team 8 round 4, team 6 round 5, team 4 round 6, team 2 round 7, team 13 round 8, team 11 round 9, team 9 round 10, team 7 round 11, team 5 round 12 and team 3 round 13. Each of the 13 teams sits out exactly once, and a bye counts as no game rather than a win.
When do teams 1 and 2 play each other?
In round 13, the last one. Team 1 meets 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 and 2 in that order, after sitting out round 1, so if you number the 13 teams by strength, the two favourites meet when the standings are almost settled.
Round robin or bracket for 13 teams?
A round robin takes 78 games and gives every team 12. A single elimination bracket is done in 12, with every first-round loser out after one game; double elimination takes 24 or 25 and guarantees each team 2.
