Notes: |
Scores given by Reichhelm are consistent with a 9-player single-round all-play-all, although only 8 scores are given. There are other possibilities, but this seems the most likely, so I have assumed it to be the case. Hilbert gives the names of 8 participants, the same as given by Reichhelm except that Schultz is mentioned but not Perry-Smith. Could it be that Reichhelm put Schultz' result in Perry-Smith's row in the table by mistake? |
