The outcomes are pairs of candidates. Voters vote for one candidate.

A pivot event is a tie for second determining whether the second round is i and j or i and k.

conditions for ij_k
v_i > v_j, v_k, . . .
v_j > v_k, v_l
set second condition to a tie.

P matrix: rows are pairs of candidates, columns are candidates
ij 1 1 0 1 1 . . .
ik 0 0 1 0 0 . . .
il 0 0 0 0 0 0...
etc

so I think the generalization I need is just in reshuffling the rows, and then I can do this.
