Round may have been the wrong word, then. Call it "iteration" or
"stage". A simple Condorcet method where one finds a winner by some
method, then checks if it's beaten pairwise by another, then another,
and so on, would also have iterations or stages (which candidate it's
checking) even though those would not be separate elections.
