DKs Best of 2011 IV - Escalating [Winner=regan the great]

As in all my tourneys, player lists and game lists are in Post 2.
The Finals scoreboard, however, is in THIS POST. Check it out, if you haven't already. What a close finish!
DKs Best of 2011 IV - Escalating
This is the fourth in a short series of five tournaments celebrating my favourite maps of 2011. The term "Best of" is highly subjective, of course. I offer no warranty that these maps are the "best" by any measurement other than my personal opinion. The first tournament in this series used No Spoils, the second used Flat Rate, and the third was Nuclear. This tournament will feature all these maps with Escalating spoils.
Eligibility: To play in this tournament, you must be premium, have a turns-taken record of 98% or better, at least 100 completed games, and be at least a PFC on sign-up.
Procedure:The format of this tourney will be familiar to anyone who has played in my "Nuclear War" series. In each tourney in this series, the first nine phases will consist of multiplayer Standard games. In each of these phases, only the first player eliminated from each game is eliminated from the tournament. All others will continue to the next phase. As soon as all games in a phase have had one player eliminated, I will begin the next phase with the survivors. Winning these games will not influence the course of the tournament; only that first elimination is significant.
In the Final phase, all remaining players will play simultaneously in nine multiplayer Terminator games. These games will be completed and winning them will count, as will the number of kills.
Settings: All games will be Casual, Automatic, Foggy, Chained, Escalating, with a 100-round limit and no trench.
The maps to be used are shown in the Phase spoilers below.
The finals will be different from the first nine phases.
A GA medal has been approved:
