Details for Games: All games will be Anonymous, PPSC, 5 point bet, 36 hour phases, full press, no set end time. The only exceptions are the Final and the Rat Wars games which are all WTA.
The way the players who advance are determined depends on the result of the game. If enough players are eliminated to allow the rest to advance, the surviving players advance draw and advance. If too many players are eliminated before a normal conclusion is reached, the surviving players draw and the last player eliminated is chosen. Since at least two players will have been eliminated in the final year, the player whose peak number of SCs was earlier will advance. If still tied, the n tied players play an n-player game to decide who advances. **THIS CHANGED FROM THE PREVIOUS THREAD**
If the game ends with a draw before enough players are eliminated, the players with the most SCs at the time of the draw advance. If there is a tie between the last few players, track the progress of these players back until one has more SCs than the others. This player advances. If n players have the same progress throughout the game they will play an n-player game to settle the dispute.
If the game ends with a solo before enough players are eliminated, the players with the most SCs advance with any ties being solved as in the case of a draw.
All tie-breaking games will be played under the same conditions as the other games.
