I have read a lot of posts about tie breakers and using "Composite scores" and "helper columns" to sort out the winner. They make sense, but the problem I have is when you are working with 3 or more tie breaker elements .
Example - Two players are tied with their point total. After the first tie breaker player 2 wins. It should stop right there, but with the composite scoring, it tallies the 2, 3 and 4 tie breakers. So in theory, a player that does better in tie breaker 2, 3, or 4 could place higher even though they lost the main tie breaker.
I have tried placing weight values of significance with each tie breaker, but it still comes up with the same possibility.
Is there a way to stop the formula after the first tie breaker if it generates a winner, then if still tied go to second tie breaker, etc?
Thank you for your help.
