Funny stuff, 1400 ranked player beat out 3 better rated players by joining tournament and withdrawing straight away.

Racing Kings is in a sorry state, but it would be good if lichess programmers got round to excluding signed out folks from the matching algorithm. It seems to wait for the signed out player to come online before matching 2 active players, it should register them as withdrawn. I'm sure this has negligible effect on bigger tournaments, but ones created by normal people can suffer no one getting matched for minutes, which ends the tournament like above where everyone withdraws anyway.
