I'll do the American scores once the final American game finishes (it's Game 7944193 in case you're interested)

Final American scores are posted, tie-breakers have not yet been applied. There is a four-way tie for spots 34-36, so there will be a four player tiebreaker, first eliminated is out.

Game is down to 2 players, Faro was eliminated first...So if you want to move on, we should be done shortly

Competitive tie breaking game. I may have won the game but Kenny was the player slayer!

I'm going to go through the scores again to finalize seedings for Stage 2. Expect your first set of two games today or tomorrow.

Scores are updated to include tie-breakers. It turns out that I made several mistakes scoring the British side the first time; I think I fixed them all, but feel free to check your score and tell me if I made a mistake.

Half the stage 2 games are out, the other half will be sent tomorrow.
Re: You Say You Want A Revolution (Stage 1) Scores Updated 1
Do I get credit for killing 2 in the tie-breaker game? Does the war cease to exist during tie-breakers, because my argument would be that a kill is a kill regardless of when it happened, not to mention one of my fellow patriots (Faro) fell to his death.

No, I didn't give you credit for your two tie-breaker kills because I didn't think it would be fair to other people if they only got 8 games to get kills in and you got 9. Because you got the most kills of anyone in the game, though, I seeded you the highest of anyone with 2 total kills.
Re: You Say You Want A Revolution (Stage 1) Scores Updated 1
I had myself for 14 kills rather than 13--5 in gfame 7740246 1 in game 7740265 , 1 in game 7740269 and 7 in game7740788. Sorry just checked. I already killed off my 2nd round guy virtually. I don't think it makes much of a difference.

Like I said, just trying to argue for it...this response is valid and makes total sense...Can't blame a colonist for trying!

I feel that this tournament has been running slowly, largely due to people not joining their games on time. There has always been a 48-hour window for you to accept your invites (which can be extended IF you pm me) but I've been lax about enforcing it. From now on, you have 48 hours (more if you pm me) or else you're eliminated (in which case your opponent will move on but will NOT be credited with a kill.)

Is it 48 hours for future games or games just sent out? I am still awaiting my opponents arrival.

You can't get 7 kills in a 7-player game
Thanks for checking, though

All but one game has either started or been cancelled due to an absent player.

I was going to drop them, but forgot. I did now.

We've got 5 games still ongoing. Assuming they finish by the weekend, I'll send out more games then.

Re: You Say You Want A Revolution (Stage 1) Scores Updated 1
Hope you all had a great Christmas. Standings after the first round of skirmishes are in the first post. Both sides have exactly 2/3 of their players remaining. I've sent out the next round of skirmishes. You will have the usual two invites to join your games, unless a lot of people don't join.
