It's been 48 hours since I sent out games, so the four two-player games that only had one player join have been condensed into two games, and the two seven-player games have been remade and the players do did not join have been dropped.
Scores are updated, and several people have been kicked out of their games for breaking CC rules. Obviously they have been eliminated from the tournament, and I have also updated the scoring system to account for people who get kicked out or deadbeat.
Here's how it works: If a player is kicked out of a standard game for deadbeating or breaking the rules, no one will receive any points for his elimination. If the player is kicked out of a terminator game no one will receive points for his elimination unless they actually conquer all his territories. If the player is kicked out of an assassin game, scores will not be affected.
Scores updated. The one remaining game has five players left. Also, if a player holds the objective on an objective map (like Peloponnesian War) that player will get credit for eliminating all remaining players.
The last game is down to two players and will likely end in the next couple of days. I will send out the next rounds of games within two days of its completion, so be ready.
Also a bunch of people, especially freemiums haven't been joining, and I'm assuming that that is because their slots are filled with games that started while the last round was finishing. So here's my offer: if you are a freemium with no free slots now, but you think that you can free up a slot in the next week (by next Wednesday,) pm me before your new invite expires and I will save a spot in one or both games for you. Consider this a reward for reading the thread.
