Reverse aborted tournament round 1 results?

[gloomy panther]

I set up a tournament that didn't work as expected. (See https://lichess.org/forum/lichess-feedback/clocks-start-automatically-in-swiss-tournament#6)

Can an admin back out the rating changes, please? (I assume this is doable.)

It’s not possible to change ratings

I imagined what I was suggesting was not a "ratings change", per se. More precisely it would be a "ratings refund", voiding the results of a contest deemed to be invalid. I think is what's done when an opponent is determined to have cheated, right? (It's a subtle difference, I admit. I assumed there is a normal procedure for the latter, is all.)

The only way for mods to do that is to click ‘engine’ in the mod zone. Which won’t really work well for any other request

The rating will get back to where players should be when the play more games too, so it will self-correct
