Abstract
It is shown that the brightest members of elongated, compact groups of compact galaxies (CGCGs) are located not in the central part of a group but at its edge. This suggests that compact groups of compact galaxies (n>8) have a cometary shape, with their opening angle being less than 60°, for the most part.
