Then that person will play in both the A and B groups in Stage 2.
It is possible that the same person could win all the games in one of the Stage 1 groups -- they would then be in all of the Stage 2 games. In fact, if the same person were to win all 6 Stage 2 games, Stage 3 is unnecessary. I don't expect that will happen, but there certainly might be less than 6 players in Stage 3.

Hey,
Could you put me back to second reserve? As I am freemium, I think I have gotten myself into a tangle of games (AKA more games then 2) that look fairly permanent fixtures on the My Games section, and I thought I'd tell you now to save some time.
If you need to use me before I've finished these games, I guess I'll go back to 3rd reserve and so on

No need to move you around in the list -- I'll contact any reserve to be sure they can step in before I activate them. If I need you, and you aren't available, I'll go down the list until I find someone who is available. If another reserve is needed later, I'll check with you again. OK?

Those of you in Secondus and Quartus, be patient. If your games haven't started by the 27th, I'll activate some reserves. If you were in Secondus or Quartus, and cannot or do not wish to play, or can start soon, let me know, please.
Happy Holidays, everyone!

Danalan, I'm going to be freemium for a short while, so during that time I might hold up the tournament. It won't be much longer than a week, but if you want to replace me, go ahead.

This is designed to be a slow-moving tourney, to accommodate all players. It shouldn't be a problem -- no-one will ever have more than 2 games to play at a time, by design.

So noted, and congrats. I'm updating the first post in this thread to reflect the results, BTW. Once all the groups have a Luxembourg winner, I'll send out the Stage 1, round 2 'C' games. The map is Madness, one of my favorites.

Ok, all the Stage 1, round 1, map A, Luxembourg, games are over, and those 6 winners will play in Stage 2.
Stage 1, round 2, has begun, with map C, Madness, sent out to every group.
Only one of the stage 1, round 1, map B, Archipelago, games is over, won by Kratos664 of Sextus -- who also won the Sextus Map A game. That gives him two tries to get into the final game, and makes him the player to beat.

There's one Round 1 Game B (Archipeligo) game yet in play, Primus group is still duking it out. There have been some excellent battles in this tournament already -- good job all!
Look for the D games to go out soon -- that Primus game won't last forever.

You only need 3 wins to take the whole tournament -- unfortunately for you, they have to be in successive stages. 3 wins in Stage 1 is impressive, but you still need to win a Stage 2 game to advance to the Finals. The good news is that you have 3 chances to do just that.

The number of Final Stage players will be equal to the number of Stage 2 winners. If you were to win 3 Stage 2 games, you would still only have one entry into the Final game. You would reduce the number of total players by the number of extraneous games won. In this case, by 2, so there would be only 4 players in the final game.
My hope is that this doesn't happen, but that's the way the tournament's structured.
