I've won my match against kratos644.

I was wondering about the scoring system: isn't it the exact same as making each game worth 1 point? There are only two real outcomes: either both players win 3, or one player wins more than 3. If someone wins more than 3, then those games are worth at least 8 points (if each game was worth 2, which of course is too many home games, but that doesn't matter) and the player who wins two or fewer can get at most 6 points. If both players win three, then they've won the same number of home games, so they'll have the same score, every time. So 3 wins each makes a draw, just like it would if games were worth 1 each. I could see this being useful if scores carried over or did something, or if we played against different people, but for now, you'd be safe just asking who won more games.
