What's going on with this tournament?

There are still 2 games in play; as soon as they finish the results will be updated and we'll be onto Round 6.

[Tupence]

Update: We're still waiting for the last game in Round 5 to finish.

Update: We're still waiting for the last game in Round 5 to finish.

Is it possible to put a cap on these games? That one doesn't look like it's ending any time soon.

[El Guapo]

Agreed! WTF is up with going 35 rounds into escalating spoils? This game is........ridiculous!

[Tupence]

If noone else gets eliminated from the last game by the end of Round 45, the rest of the points will be shared equally between the remaining players (4.5 points each) and we'll be onto Round 6!

[El Guapo]

So are we gonna end this game? Round 48 now....

What's the plan for stalemates? Rail Africa in ours is going to be a stalemate.

What's the plan for stalemates? Rail Africa in ours is going to be a stalemate.

Any plan for this? We're the only game still going for this round.

Edit: never mind...just found this (from a previous stalemate):

If noone else gets eliminated from the last game by the end of Round 45, the rest of the points will be shared equally between the remaining players (4.5 points each) and we'll be onto Round 6!

Looks like we've got a ways to go!

Yes I think it's fair to keep the same rule as I used for that game in Round 5 (which, incidentally, is still going...)

[drunkmonkey]

We've reached Round 46.
