Is it always the same Square?

I have had 2 consecutive games with the same square setup. Why would that be the case? There are many different ways to arrange the pieces into a square.

See this bug report, and upvote if you agree:

The rules state:
"The 17 wooden tiles are placed edge-to-edge to form the game board. For example, players can make either:" and then two diagrams, captioned "An 8 x 8 square" and "An irregular shape of 10 x 10 maximum".

Done.
What happens if there is a tie? I have never seen a tiebreaker rule anywhere, but I would think ties are not uncommon.
I only wee "wins" and "losses" in player profiles. no "ties."

Seems like a tie is just a tie (no tiebreaker). For example, in the standings of this tournament:
