Need help with this game question.

Imagine a game with 8 players, reduced to three, hopelessly deadlocked - we've all been there!

If all three players miss three-turns and are eliminated who wins?

The first person to miss 3 turns in a row is eliminated. Then the next person to miss 3, then the next.

The last lpayer to not take his turn wins.
let me give you an example.
Say here are players A,B and C. A starts first with not taking his turns, b and c follow the example. Then C wins, because A and B get eliminated before C does. This is the case in sequential games.

more questions? either put them here, or pm me for a personalized reply.

thanks, I understand how a sequential game would end but what about freestyle. Players A, B and C all miss their third turn at the same time. Would the winner be determined by the order of colours red, green etc?
