"Survivor 2" Round 11 is about to start

Sparhawk, 3 out of 13 I don't think is bad. I am just a little anxious to get things down to one game is all. After this round only one person per round should be eliminated, instead of the two per round minimum with two games. Also, when you consider it entirely possible that two could be eliminated from each game anyway due to abandonments or whatever, it's really only one extra person in each game.

I'm retiring from the tournament. My days at SE4 are coming to an end and I pass my title onto the next worthy victor.

Askan

When SE5 comes at I'll be back at the tournaments, and woe to all who challenge the Empire of Night.

Really? Well I am sorry to see you go. But if you are gonna I guess it's better to do it between rounds. If you change your mind please let me know.

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.

Geo, when will the next round start?
I will be away from Feb 21 to March 2. Should I make arrangements that somebody else runs my first turns?

The games will start as soon as everyone has joined an uploaded their empires, or as late as the evening of February 25th. If anyone has not joined or uploaded their empires by that point they get bumped according to the rules of the tourney.

I'd say chances are very good that the first turn will fall during your absence. You should have someone available unless you trust the AI to handle it.
