What was corrected

From the handwritten sheets

The one mistake on paper. Two matches finished 2–0, so no third game was played. Against those the sheet notes “+1 set” beside the winner’s total, and the difference column was then worked out as though that unplayed set had been won 21–0. A set that is never played is worth nothing to anybody, so those 21 points had to come out.

Bijay beat Raghav 21–13, 21–16

The sheet’s own score column reads 42 and 29, which is right. But 42 minus 29 is +13, and the difference column says +34. The extra 21 is the unplayed set.

Raghav beat Vikash 21–12, 21–12

The sheet’s own score column reads 42 and 24, which is right. But 42 minus 24 is +18, and the difference column says +39. Again 21 too many.

What changed on the final board

Only two numbers in the whole tournament moved. Matches played, won, lost, points and every position are exactly as written by hand.

Player	Played / Won / Lost	Points	On paper	Correct	Position
Ashish Jee	2 / 2 / 0	4	+11	+11	1st, unchanged
Vikash Jee	3 / 2 / 1	4	−25	−4	2nd, unchanged
Bijay Jee	3 / 1 / 2	2	+17	−4	3rd, unchanged
Raghav	2 / 1 / 1	2	+5	+5	4th, unchanged
Govind Jee	2 / 0 / 2	0	−8	−8	5th, unchanged

Why only those two

The phantom game only appeared in the two matches that finished 2–0, and Raghav played in both of them. He lost one 2–0 and won the other, so the 21 points wrongly taken off him in the first were handed back by the second. His +5 came out right by pure accident.

Ashish and Govind were never in a 2–0 match, so nothing of theirs could be wrong. Bijay was in one and finished 21 too high. Vikash was in one and finished 21 too low. That is every error in the tournament.

The proof is on the sheet itself. Raghav wrote both totals down correctly, 42 and 29 in one match, 42 and 24 in the other. Only the difference column disagrees with them. Subtract his own two numbers and you get 13 and 18, not 34 and 39. Nothing else has to be taken on trust.

A note on a check that does not work: adding up all five differences gives zero either way, because each match was written as a matching pair such as +34 and −34. Zero is a test the numbers must pass, but passing it proves nothing on its own.

The rules this page enforces

So nobody has to remember them

A game

First to 21 points wins the game, but only with a two point lead.
At 20–20 play continues until somebody is two clear, so 22–20, 23–21 and so on.
30 is the ceiling. At 29–29 the next point takes it, so 30–29 wins.
A score like 21–20 is impossible and will be rejected.

A match

Best of three games.
If one player wins the first two games the match is over. The third game is not played and is not scored. This page locks that row automatically.
The third game is only opened when the first two are split one each.

Totals and point difference

A player's total is the points actually won across the games actually played, nothing more.
Point difference is that total minus the opponent's total.
A 2–0 win therefore counts across two games, and a 2–1 win across three. That is normal and correct.

How the table is ordered

Matches won, or win percentage if you switch the selector on the standings page.
If players are level, the results between those tied players decide it.
Then games difference, then point difference, then points scored.

Worth knowing. Players have played different numbers of matches, so ranking on total wins quietly favours whoever played more. Switch the selector to win percentage on the standings page to see the other reading. On the current scores both readings give the same top two.
