rules problems in this tournament !

Hi,

I am embarrassed by two points of rule in this tournament.

Firstly, in the announcement of the tournament, Owl wrote "We start with 16 players. The best 8 (% of 2 games) will fight in a new battle (Recce First) and thereafter the best 4 will play the final battle (Fast Wheels)"
The first round is over now, and there is still 16 players are gaming!!!???
What is the key to win this tournament?

Secondly, Owl explained me how the drawings lots were made. The higher your first game score is, the higher rank opponent you play. In this way, if we strictly respect this way to do, the roll should give this:

Allies VS Axis
1 VS 2
3 VS 1
2 VS 4
4 VS 3
5 VS 6
7 VS 5
6 VS 8
8 VS 7
9 VS 10
11 VS 9
10 VS 12
12 VS 11
13 VS 14
15 VS 13
14 VS 16
16 VS 15

But Owl’s drawings lots is:

1 VS 4
3 VS 1
5 VS 2
2 VS 3
4 VS 5
6 VS 7
8 VS 9
9 VS 6
7 VS 8
10 VS 11
12 VS 13
14 VS 15
15 VS 10
13 VS 14
11 VS 12

It doesn’t respect the rule. It is not very fair than player rank 3 has to play VS opponents rank 1 and 2! In my opinion, R1 has to play R2 and R3. And why 6 VS 9? 15 VS 10 ? Really, I think we should redraw this lot as i mentionned above.

What do you think of these anomaly points? Thanks to give your opinion fast, before games begin.

Regards.
