That is correct. Because Askan has chosen not to continue, that reduces the number of available players and reduces the number needed to eliminate to get to 20 after this round. There are still five more eligible players that have not joined their round 4 game. It's still entirely possible one or mroe of these players will choose not to continue, further reducing the number of players. If more then 2 of the 5 do so I will have to kick one of the players from game 2 and have them join game 1. But I won't know that for a few days.

My thoughts.....

It would appear that the number of players now left are 25. By locking out Game2 at 12 players, you are potentially forcing all 5 remaining players into Game1 and forcing Game1 to have 13 players.

I would think a better way would be to leave Game1 and Game2 open till the 13 player limit is reached. If the difference between the two games is 2 or greater, then the Last players are shifted from the game with the larger number of players to the lesser untill the difference is 0 or 1.

Of course, the above assumes all remaining 5 players will join. If not, there isn't a problem.

Just my 2 cents worth.
