Milic Sucevic did not lose, he won.

I'll switch that up also; it's not the only incorrect result I've had to correct.

Hey John, if it isn't too much of a hassle could you post the ratings of everyone in the field? Doesn't have to be in the pairings - just a list would be good so we don't have to look it up each time.
