Each player plays each of the others exactly once, and each player has one bye.
No player plays two consecutive games at the same venue.
Each player plays exactly once on each side of each venue.
Hence each player plays twice at each venue, and each player plays five times on each side (left and right).
It is seeded, so that important games come late in the tournament if player A is the best, B the second best, etc.
It has a permutation score of 10033.8766080117911769776, which is maximal.
It has a left-right asymmetry measure of 3.7875907185647439412, which is minimal given the assignment of games to rounds and venues.
