In 13x13 Swiss blitz tournaments some players (I am almost sure those under 10k) start with a negative number of points. This has changed since a few months, before they all started with 0 poinrs.
Negative points make sense if there is a large number of players to make the strongest ones meet each other right away, but in this case I think they should all start from 0 points and have an equal chance of winning.
