    I had the same issue, switching to HTTP Tunnel A seems to fix it.

    Lets say Team i wins against every Team j such that i < j. And to tie two teams is since they will have a result between them so we can tie 3 teams instead, so team 3 wins over team 4 team 4 wins over team 5 and team 5 wins over team 3. So that way team 3,4 and 5 all have same number of points.

    Implementation wise set point[i][j] = 3 for i<j and point[j][i] = 0 and point [3][4], point[4][5] and point[5][3] = 3 and point [3][5] = 0 would give a correct answer.

In div2 C — HockeyLeagueDraft — would greedy with 2 multisets work (by attack/defense, defense/attack)?

    Yes, but you also need to keep track of index of player since that is also a deciding factor.
