"smallest defeat"?  Oops - I will quote from wikipedia:


Ranked Pairs and Schulze are procedurally in some sense opposite approaches (although they very frequently give the same results):

Ranked Pairs (and its variants) starts with the strongest defeats and uses as much information as it can without creating ambiguity.
Schulze repeatedly removes the weakest defeat until ambiguity is removed.
In the three-candidate case, Ranked Pairs, Schulze, River, MinMax, and maybe others, assuming the same measure of defeat strength is being used in each, all give exactly the same results.
