I recently created a 5 player single round robin tournament,the code for which is m1370883822.When it came time to play that tournament I found out that I was playing 3 games with the black pieces,but only 1 game with the white pieces-why is that?Why wasn't I playing the same number of games with the white pieces as I was with the black pieces.I think it's unfair that I have to play 3 games as black but that I only get to play 1 game as white in my tournament.I also think that it is unfair that one player in my tournament gets to play 3 games as white but only has to play 1 game as black.

The colors are assigned completely at random, then alternate for additional games against the same opponent. Yea, it could be better, but the only real way to be fair is to play an even number of games against each opponent.
