EDIT: While I did research this for my own curiosity (and to see the extent to which the Round 3 pairings favoured one of the players above), I do hope that it removes *some* of the criticism that these guys don't deserve to be up there (for at least tonight's round. I suspect most if not all of us will fall tonight). Most of them are playing well beyond their "Class C" designation (if you're using USCF designations as analogous to CFC ratings).
