Final Placings Question

I'm currently involved in a tournament (yay! :)) and it's been running over three rounds and we're at the crunch point with the final round of games being finished, so there's 20 games and a point for each one you've won.

What happens when three players finish on the same points?
How are the final orders worked out?
Lowest ranking at start of tournament (harder for less experienced players to win thus better recognition)?
First to finish / Last to finish (reward faster players)
alphabetical order?

Just curious. I'm in with a shout at the top end, and wondering how I'm going to get bumped down the list. :P

It depends on the tourney and how the TO has it set up. PM me the link to the tourney and I can help you out, unless its an auto tourney.

Thanks.
I didn't know it could be different but I also cannot see anywhere where it is mentioned. It happens to be this one (http://www.conquerclub.com/player.php?m ... nt_id=1824), but I'm not going to tie with anyone now.

This is an auto tournament. In these tournies, I believe ties are resolved by the following:

1) Number of rounds
2) Join Order (player who joined the tourney first wins).
