They way I do it is simpler than that.
The rope comes up to the pole and is wrapped around the pole once and goes under itself and then straight up.

Bit like the red rope in the top part of this pick. The blue is the pole.  (ignoring it going under the blue loop at the bottom)

that is more like what i do....

I've been watching this thread, and must say that we always run the guy ropes to the tent, and were in the winds following Cyclone Debbie, and the tent showed no sign of lifting...  Good luck, or???

Might try going around the pole next time to see if there's a difference
