Under what method did you compute C as the winner?

Assuming I entered things correctly, you have a pairwise matrix of:

Option  A       B       C
A       0       0       498
B       0       0       497
C       3       2       0

Now, using my web site to compute the winner 
(http://www.ericgorr.net/condorcet/), Basic (Plain) Condorcet, 
Beatpath Winner and Ranked Pairs(Deterministic #1 - what Mike 
Ossipoff was calling it), I show that A & B tie in all three methods.
