Ah. Same thing still applies though, all you need is some way to make the B
versus C defeat eliminated before you do whatever special casing you have.

	40 A B C F
	10 A C B F
	10 F C B A

	F superdefeats A 60:40 (scaled 3:1)
	B defeats F 50:10
	C defeats F 50:10
	A defeats B 50:10
	A defeats C 50:10
	B defeats C 40:20

eliminate weakest defeat, BdC; eliminate A; you're left with B defeats F,
C defeats F, A eliminated, so B and C draw.
