The tournament rules state:
"The winner of each game will advance to the next round, and the losers go home."

Losers go home seems straightforward. If a game winner drops out, why should the rest of the winners be at risk to lose the tournament to a player who lost the first round?


very good point!

on the other hand,not knowing the reasons why the 2 players dropped out,why should a "6" player game be reduced to 5,it's not fair on the other players in the tournament.


i do like playiing devils advocate :lol:

Just substitute the whoever lost the least amount of points when the games where finished. Hence second place finishers of said game. It's a six member game tournament.

Can we get a link to the current games in progress? Lazy tournament organizers......

Laughing with ya...... not at ya ;)

You are not going to believe his but the poll was nearly tied at 11 to 10 in favor of the random drawing. I went ahead with the drawing, but when I went to fill in the last open spot I noticed that there are now 2 empty spots.

So I am re-issuing the poll and this time I am requesting all responders to please enter your votes in the tournament thread. The vote was just too close for comfort and I want everyone to be able to see the actual votes.

So again, the choices are...
1. Two 5 man games
2. Random Drawing of losers from round 1

Thanks


option 2

Very nice, emelar! I've added the games to the first page.

Risky, I've been looking for those donuts, but I can't seem to find them. Did you eat them all again?

Man, emelar, sorry about this, but the redman himself has made it to the finals. Custom dictates that the redman gets red. My apologies, my dear sir, especially after you invoked the all-powerful Dibs.
