[SOLVED] Additional Rounds in the Challenge Mode

Question

1. When did the additional rounds in the Challenge Mode omitted? And, why was these rounds removed?

2. How much were additional rounds that had been existed? I meant if two challengers had 6-6, would there be the 7th round? If it was 7-7, would there be the 8th? [I only took two challenges at that period of times. As far as I remembered, I won 6-5.]

For new members who read this question and don't know about the addition rounds: there was some additional rounds if two challengers had a draw result (5-5). Each must wait another's response for the next round after the 5th.

Thanks a lot for your reply :)

The additional tie breaker round was not optimal that's why it's removed in 2016. In 2016 there, we used to have tie breaker round but as winner decision from that rounds is quite unfair for one person like if one person completed an challenge with scoring 5 and second person who is scored 5 + correct answer in tie breaker too than that second person will win easily most of the times cause of answering that tie breaker question first and the first player didn't even get the chance to attempt the question because not active at challenge that time period so due to those things it's removed in 2016 and new challenges rules and regulations are introduced.

Answer 5

GAWEN STEASY Great answer! Thanks a lot :)

So how much were the maximal rounds for a tie breaker? For example, if we drawn at the 6th round, was there any 7th?

[I am still doubting, I guess I had more than the 6th round, as I should wait my opponent's answer, it was very tedious]

Answer 6

It's only have one more addintional round and winner decision is sometime buggy thats why it get removed earlier.
