My table has CR beating VF by 1, where you have the opposite.
However, that doesn't change anything in the results-- it just means
one fewer conflict to ignore.

Looks right to me.  It seems ironic that Virus Fight was the only one
to beat Martian Twelves, and it tied Timelock and Wrecktangle, yet
ended up in 7th place because it lost to Timberland and Hunt by big
margins.  Preference voting is funny that way.  I guess Virus Fight
had "high negatives", just like Hillary Clinton!
