but can you answer the tie question for future ties in other tournaments?
IMHO, 1st 2nd and 3rd place should be added together and then split...
if not, we could have just pinned their T-1 against a wall, got a draw for second place and made more gold then a tie for first.
Thanks again
Captain_Judo: Correct, what you mention is the normal procedure.

per team. If you had just tied for second you would get
2000+1500/2=1750 per team.My tiebreaker question is still unclear
3 way tie for 2nd Team A, B, and C
Team A beat Team B
Team B beat Team C
Team C beat Team A
Team B beat #1 team. Team A and C lost to #1
Team A lost to #1 and tie for #2
Team B lost to tie for #2 and #5
Team C lost to #1 and tie for #2
To me it seems the head to head is a wash.
So since Team B beat #1 they would get 2nd. Does it then go to the third tiebreaker between A and C which would be a tie and thus be a gold split of 3rd and 4th?
Clarification would be helpful.
Captain_Judo: First, let me point out that a three-way tie for 2nd implies that
2nd, 3rd and 4th place are held by these three teams. The next
available standing is 5th. I mention this because it can be a
source of confusion as sometimes teams expect that the next
available standing is 3rd when three teams are tied for
2nd. 
The third tie breaker rule states:Opponent Strength - final rank of opponents that have defeated your team
If I understand the example you're illustrating, Team B would get hit for losing to the team ranked #5 whereas the lowest rank the other teams lost to is rank #2.
Now that two teams are tied for 2nd place, we examine the head to head between Team A and Team C. So the final standing gives us:
2nd Place: Team C
3rd Place: Team A
4th Place: Team B
