This is a Survivor Tournament, not a Knockout.
Premium Members Only.
Each round will consist of 3x2 player games. You just need to win 1 of 3 to survive in the Series. If you are the ultimate survivor you could even make it to the finals by just winning 1 of every 3 games.
You get 3 points for winning all 3, 1 point for winning 2 and zero points for winning 1 - You survive though.
Lose all 3 and you are just another victim. You are eliminated from the tournament regardless of how many points you have amassed.
The player with the highest cumulative points will get a bye in the next round. If points are equal it goes to the most points gained in the current round, then previous round then the one before that. If it is still a draw it goes down to who finished all 3 games first. To be clear, this is by time the games finish. So it's in your interest to play as quickly as possible.
If an odd number of players are left after that then the next highest scoring player will also get a bye.
Play continues until there are only 8 players left then it is a straight knockout in the quarters, semi and final. 5 games in the quarters and semi, and 7 in the final. If we go from 9 to 8,7,6 players remaining then the highest scoring player gets a bye like in previous rounds.

Before I do though, Random - Survivor Series has been marked as full. It'll commence literally within hours. This is your last chance to enter. Anyway the result: - hmsps eliminated milo67.

If you enter quickly you get to pick your team. - JDS2711 Eliminated the pre-tournament 11th Seed and the player with the worst username in the history of usernames, FC1966. FC was graded 724 points higher than JDS2711. This humiliation is right up there with England 1-2 Iceland, Euro 2016 last-16, June 2016. A giant Killing. When JDS2711 was interviewed immediately after the match he said, and I quote exactly: "I am the best in the world! I am the best in the world! I have beaten FC1966 in Risk!! It is completely unbelievable! I have beaten FC1966! England, birthplace of giants. Lord Nelson, Lord Beaverbrook, Sir Winston Churchill, Sir Anthony Eden, Clement Attlee, Henry Cooper, Lady Diana--I have beaten them all. I have beaten them all. Boris Johnson can you hear me? BoJo, I have a message for you in the middle of the Covid Crisis. I have a message for you: We have knocked FC1966 out of the Pelo Survivor Series. Boris Johnson, as they say in your language in the boxing bars around Madison Square Garden in New York: Your boys took a hell of a beating! Your boys took a hell of a beating!"

In his after match interview, he discussed strategy: "hopefully the rest of the pack will play their games more than once a day so we are not waiting for 3 weeks. The games were 18, 17, and 13 turns. My opponent got an early lead in two of the games, but our positions east/west split allowed me to amass a huge force that was able to even one map, and then luck prevailed (and perhaps some skill in where I placed my reinforcements)". Couldn't have said it better myself rosseo!

Round 3 Draw Preview, The Battle of Tanagra: The First Peloponnesian War (460–445 BC) was fought between Sparta as the leaders of the Peloponnesian League and Sparta's other allies, most notably Thebes, and the Delian League led by Athens with support from Argos. This war consisted of a series of conflicts and minor wars, such as the Second Sacred War. There were several causes for the war including the building of the Athenian long walls, Megara's defection and the envy and concern felt by Sparta at the growth of the Athenian Empire. The First Peloponnesian War began in 460 BC with the Battle of Oenoe, where Spartan forces were defeated by those of Athenian-Argive alliance. At first the Athenians had the better of the fighting, winning the naval engagements using their superior fleet. They also had the better of the fighting on land, until 457 BC when the Spartans and their allies defeated the Athenian army at Tanagra. 62 Progress to fight at Tanagra. With 2 Round Heroes that leaves 60 to march into battle so no 'Odd Man' Bye this Round. Get your sword sharpened Chuck! 30 Match Ups take place at Tanagra, consisting of 90 games. With over 50 players there will be 2 Round Hero Byes up for grabs this round and of course the 'Odd Man' Bye.

Mussar is the 3rd player to reach 7 points! - 68th Seed Gpowell does the Hokey Kokey in celebration of his 3-0 victory. He moves up to 7 points and looks like the Dark Horse of the Tournament.

ROUND 3 Summary: - 62 Players Started the battle, 10 Bit the Dust this Round Leaving 52 Warriors progressing to Round 4. - a6mzero is a Round Hero this Round.

ROUND 4 Preview, Megara: 432 BC, Sparta declares that Athens has broken the Thirty Year Peace and prepares for war. The main battle in this campaign. During the night, Athenians and their allies approached Megara from Minoa and the road to Eleusis. The plan worked, and the Peloponnesian garrison was effectively isolated from the city. As morning came, Megarian Democrats pretended to be outraged by the captured walls. The Democrats encouraged Megarians to open the city gates and attack the Athenians and then decorated themselves with oil to be easily distinguished from other Megarians. At the crucial moment, the plot was uncovered by the Oligarchs, and the gate remained closed. Athens sensed the change of plan and attacked the Nisaia garrison. Spartans were taken as prisoners and the Peloponnesians were allowed to ransom themselves. The Spartan commander, Brasidas, appeared with an army larger than the Athenians. The two cavalries fought under the walls of Megara. The Scoreboard is attached to the Tournament Thread (Bottom of lengthy 1st Post). Sort by 'Game Number' Column to put it into Draw Order. I've tidied it up, it looks amazing! 52 Wariors return for battle at Megara, 2 Round Hero Byes, leaves 50. So unlucky William.Tennant, you don't get that 'Odd Man' Bye, sharpen your sword Bro!

This is an update of EPIC proportions....................................................... Of the 66 Games taking place this Round, 37 Are Complete. If still playing, Focus and Scud! Highlights of the Round so Far: - Bit of an upset, 60th Seed beats 9th Seed 2-1. A great victory for JDS2711 over U Suck who was 735 points HIGHER ranked! He couldn't KO him though, U Suck survives. - It's Check Mate in 3 to our 38th Seed Leon_Trotsky. He gubs the 54th seed Czech59 3-0 early doors to move onto an impressive 8 points. The crazy American Czech leaves us on Zero points. - Triple 6 lives up to his name. Craig25 in the face of a combination of Expert Play and Triple 6's falls in Round 5, leaving the Tourney on 5 points. Triple moves up to 4 )-: - Fraxal has just BROKE the REICHTER SCALE. A FORCE 7 EARTHQUAKE just isn't enough to describe the Scale of this UPSET. For once, I AM LOST FOR WORDS! Ready for it????????????????? 87th Seed (Out of 98 Players) FRAXAL OBLITERATES 1st SEED GREENGO 3-0. Winner of the Match-Up and a Zillion Ranking Points is FRAXAL. FRAXAL was 2290 (TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED AND NINETY) Points LOWER RANKED. Other than sneaking out the back door, GREENGO is going nowhere! WOOOOOFFFFFF.

P.S Greengo, if it's any consolation, you made me feel better. My KO doesn't look quite so bad now (-: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROUND 5 COMPLETE / ROUND 6 DRAW: That was a phenomenal Round Guys, 46 started it, 41 finished it. Here are the remaining highlights: - I have absolute respect for our 5th Seed A6mZero. Everybody contributes to the quality of Survivor Series Tournaments and A6 does it in his own special way. By achieving horrific results in almost every Tournament he never fails to provide ammo for the highlights! And he still comes back for more (-:. This Round it was 79th Seed General Brewsie who was the recipient of the free ranking points. He beats A6 2-1, A6 was a huuuugggee 1142 Points HIGHER RANKED, he survives though! - spider.ear clips Gpowell's wings in Round 5. The 12th Seed moves up to 7 points with the 3-0 KO. GP, the 68th Seeds leaves us on 7 points! - 81st Seed 11Joan11 loses 2-1 in Rd 5. But considering she was up against 6th Seed Dragon Dor who was a massive 1157 points HIGHER RANKED, survival wasn't a bad outcome. The Dragon up to 2, Joan remains on 5 points. - SHOCK, REICHTER SCALE 4: 90th Seed AnaSazidReamer gets off the mark in Rd 5. He destroys 31st Seed CivilOutlaw 2-1 to move on to 1 point. Fantastic result, The Outlaw was a HUGE 834 Points HIGHER ranked! - 74th Seed Yonstineru gets his 2nd KO of the Tourney. He beats the Dark Horse of the Tournament 96th Seed OlafThundefoot 3-0 to move into contention on 7 points. The lowest ranked player to enter the Tournament departs, but has out-lasted 48 HIGHER RANKED Players. Just under 1/2 the Field. NOT A BAD PERFORMANCE AT ALL! - Predicted Score: Just the one predicted score In our Tail Enders game, William Tennant beats RickMorales 2-1 to move onto 9. Rick survives on 4 Points Predicted Scores: Actual scores will be updated if different. Players with predicted scores are Orange Blocks on the Scoreboard. ROUND 5 SUMMARY: An amazing Round of Risk in the Pelo Wars! - Fraxal and William Tennant are in Jnt 1st on 9 points. Fraxal wins the Tie Breaker for the Round Hero Bye courtesy of his MAX points in the last Round. WOW, FRAXAL IS LEADING THE TOURNAMENT AND HE's THE 87th SEED! - Bill is on the 'Odd Man' Bye but will and Odd number of players remain????????? - There are 4 players on 8 points, 9 on 7. Everyone remaining alive has scored in the Tourney. Nobody is surviving on Zero. - ChuckD is the highest Seeded player still standing. He was 3rd Seed Pre-Tournament. 7 Points. - Krolt is the lowest Seeded Player still battling it out. Seeded 92/98 Pre Tournament: 2 Points. ROUND 6 PREVIEW: 41 Players re-enter the fray. 1 Round Hero Bye down and an EVEN number of players remain. You're going to have to fight to survive once again Bill, unlucky!

With a 3-0 win over WeaselShane he's up to Top Spot on 11 Points. The Weasel bites the dust in Rd 6. - Close match on paper, 31st v 36th Seed, 5 Points v 8 Points. The 5 point player wins it 3-0. The 8 point player crashes out. Civil Outlaw 3 v 0 Mint-Murray. Murray, The Ryder Cup Tournament is starting soon, fire another bullet at that! - Our 74th Seed Yonstineru was unlucky, he came up against 7th Seed Triple 6 who was 1102 Points HIGHER RANKED. But he survives with a 1-2 Loss, not a bad survival for the 74th Seed. Yon remains on 5, Triple up to 7 points. - Shockarooney! 22nd Seed B00060 looks menacing. Mark does'nt. B00060 scuds 8th Seed MarkTheMenace to send him crashing out in Rd 6. B00060 up to 7, Mark departs already on 7. Cruel! - Our 3rd Seed shows his class in Rd 6. He takes 2nd Spot in the Tourney on 10 Points, Chuck D destroys the 67th Seed RickMorales 3-0. Rick departs on 4 points. Ryder Cup for Rick!

Mussar, when you read this, go directly to the Ryder Cup Page and sign up! - Our 90th Seed goes down 2-1 v the 14th Seed Latore. But, as Latore was 1118 Points HIGHER Ranked, a 2-1 defeat and survival ain't a bad outcome for AnaSazidReamer. - Woooooooffffff, 61st Seed NapoleonII jumps from 1 point to 4 by KO'ing 47th Seed Sweed Dreams who departs on 5 points!

Round 13 COMPLETE / ROUND 14 DRAW: It's the Quarter Quarter Final Troops!! If you don't know what that means, let me explain.......................................................... 11 Players were surviving at the Round 13 stage, 10 took to the field of Battle, here is what happened: - In Round 13, William Tennant, the 29th Seed scuds the 24th Seed to move into the lead on 21 points. If we don't progress to the KO stages this Round it looks like Bill is on a Bye. I've not had a chance to say this for a while….....To our losing 24th Seed, it's RIP MEP! - The 7th seed got the wrong act. He read the Riot Act to the 4th Seed…......... Score: Triple 6 3 v 0 Marand…................... Triple up to 19 points and a share of the lead! So it went from 98 Warriors starting the Tournament, to 11 last Round and 9 progress to Round 14......1 Round Hero Bye down and 8 take to the field of battle. With the KO Stages starting at 8 Players, this in effect is a Quarter Quarter Final!!! Round 14 Preview: The player getting the Round Hero BYE at a CRUCIAL point in the Tournament is William.Tennant who is the stand alone leader on 21 Points. The other 8 players battle it out, ONLY 1 needs to fall for the KO Stages to commence....... Settings: Initial Troops: Auto (Random for each round) Play Order: Sequential Spoils: Escalating (Random for each round) Reinforcements: Chained Special Gameplay: Fog of War There is one stand out fixture in this Round, but, the entire Scoreboard and Draw can be downloaded from the Tournament Forum: - Triple 6 v dragon dor - 7th v 6th Seed - 19 v 14 Points - If one of these players fall, this tournament is wide open!!

ROUND 14 COMPLETE - QUARTER FINAL DRAW!!!!
From 98 Players who entered the Tournament, Round 14 started with 9 players. We only had to lose 1 for the KO STAGES to begin. Here are the highlights of that Round:
- BOOM, 1st result in Round 14 and we have reached the QUARTER FINALS! Our 9th Seed lived up to his username for once. The 26th SCUDDED him 3-0 to send him reeling out of the Tournament 1 Round short of the KNOCK OUT STAGES. It was Drakkon 3 v 0 U SUCK….............

QUARTER-FINAL COMPLETE / SEMI-FINAL PREVIEW:
Without further ado, here ar the highlights of the QUARTERS:
- When someone gets pumped, 99% of the time they put it down to Dice or Cards, never the fact they were outplayed. In thisQuarter-Final Tie, William Tennant put it down to Cards, and for once, that may actually be correct. Here was his after match excuses/analysis (-: "Thanks for a great tournament. I was excited to do so well in the prelims. Was worried about zombie setting in this first round of knockout and I've never seen more accurate nukes on a big map. His first sets of spoils in those five games hit 3 of my main tribe homelands, and his second set hit another. Totally unreal. Every time I logged on I had lost another homeland. Only one set of my nukes even found his territories. And in the fifth game he guessed right on his first invasion. It was over before it even began. Sayonara. thanks again. Bill" Very gracious in defeat but Eliminations make winners not 3-2 Quarter Final Defeats nd it's 21st Seed ITeachJava who remains alive and progresses to the Semi Final!
- In the Quarter Final Tie that is most probable to produce the Tournament winner it was 6th Seed Dragon Dor V 7th Seed Triple 6. Who was going through, a fire breathing Beast or someone with weighted dice? My money was on Triple 6 but it was 'The Dragon' who came good! The 7th Seed Triple6 is OUTTA Here!
- Everybody knows a wink leads to the heave ho, it's an old one and CivilOutlaw fell for the oldest trick in the book. EmilyWinks then gives CivilOutlaw the heave ho, right outta the tournament. It finished 4-1 to our 13th Seed. Emily through.
- Drakkon PUMPS TheFanny. A rather crude headline but that is what happened! It was all over in the 1st 3 games to finish, TheFanny bows out gracefully with "I was beat in 3. GGs and series Drakkon! Good luck in next phase". Drakkon marches on!
SEMI-FINAL PREVIEW:
98 Players down to only 4 still standing on the field of battle............................
Settings:
Map: Peloponnesian War
Players: 2
Initial Troops: Auto (Random for each round)
Play Order: Sequential
Spoils: Nuclear (Random for each round)
Reinforcements: Chained
Special Gameplay: Fog of War
Match Ups:
iteachjava v emilywink 49th v 13th seed
21 v 22 points
On the stats above, you would have to put EmilyWink down as the favourite to win this one, but, they have played each other in 6x 2 player games (Not on Pelo), and, ITeach has won 4 of them.
Prediction: Too close to call....
dragon dor v drakkon6th v 26th Seed
17 v 21 Points
Again, this is tight but we do have a favourite. These players have only played each other in 1x 2 player game and it was on Pelo. The 26th Seed Drakkon won that won.
Prediction: Drakkon to progress 3-2
Okay Troops, GOOD LUCK IN THE SEMI's!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE FINAL:
But first, lets find out who the Semi-Finals losers were. The players who came so near, but......................so far:
- The 46th Seed in this Tournament Teach's Java. The 13th Seed Teach's Risk Skills. It was the Semi-Final and it was ITeachJava v EmilyWink. The unscrupulous Emily does it again, she Pumps ITeach to be within 1 Match Up of being the 1st Female to WIN a Survivor Series. These things are almost impossible to winso it could be a phenomenal achievement. I'm considering cheating to give myself a chance! Unlucky ITeach, close, but you fell 1 short of the final!
- A Shocker in the other semi final. Drakkon slays 'The Dragon'. Our 26th Seed took out the Tournament 6th Seed and Semi Final Favourite Dragon Dor 3-2. And, I know, 'The Dragon' wants to win aa Survivor Series badly, he has accomplished so much in RISK but a Survivor Series Title is beyond him! Congrats to Drakkon, its 26th v 13th Seed in the Final!
So, it's:
EmilyWink v Drakkon
25 v 21 Points
13th v 26th Seed
We are down from 98 Players who took to the field of Battle to only 2 left standing.........................
It's taken 774 Games to get here...........
And 7 games will seal each players fate..........................
It's Super Stardom for the winner, and obscurity for the Loser, nobody remembers 2nd places..........................(Although it is an amazing achievement)
You would have to say, on the above stats, Emily is the FAV to win this Tournament.
But, these Giants of the Game, have played each other a massive 23 Times in 2 Player games.............Not any in my Tournaments mind you. And mostly on Arms Race.......
Emily has WON 14 times, and Drakkon, only 9 Times.............................................
This ain't looking good for Drakkon.......................................
Las Vegas Sportsbooks have Drakkon at 5/4 (2.25) and Emily as the RED HOT FAVOURITE at 4/6 (1.67)
And the SETTINGS for the FINAL ARE...............................
- Best of 7
- Initial Troops: Auto
- Play Order: Sequential
- Spoils: Flat Rate
- Reinforcements: Chained
- Special Gameplay: Fog of War
Good Luck Troops!
May the Risk Gods be with you both!

THE FINAL:
Well, Bookmakers don't often get things wrong, and they called this one 100% correct. Although there are still games going, this one is over bar the winking!
From the drop, the 13th Seed EmilyWink was supremely confident that a Victory was coming her way. She spent days analysing Drakkon's CC history, playing style and opponents before coming to the conclusion that only a bout of Covid could stop her SCUDDING Drakkon. This was her comments:
"unfortunately for Drakkon, he drew unlucky #13.
we know how this ends.
it is a fun match up for us though. He joined a clan i helped start years ago (Riders on the Storm) and still flies our old banner in his profile."
And that is how it panned out. She quickly took a commanding 3-0 Lead, the writing was on the wall for our 26th Seed. She then closed down the 4th to make her the winner of the Best of 7 FINAL in 4 Games. She is well ahead in another, so, looks like a 5-2 or 6-1 or possibly 7-0 Destruction in the Final.
Emily also makes CC history as the first Female WINNER of a SURVIVOR SERIES. An Amazing feat.
Ladies and Gentelmen, I give you our PELO SURVIVOR SERIES CHAMPION.....................
The Punisher on Pelo, The Winker from The West, The Rider on the Storm, The Hostess with the Mostess, The Teacher that Tango's, The Lady from RISK Hell, Troops, I present.....
EMILYWINK
Drakkon was so unlucky to come up against a performance like this in the Final. An amazing Tournament from the 26th Seed, just coming up 1 short of the Super Stardom that WINNING a SURVIVOR SERIES brings.
Well, it was an absolutely amazing feat. There was 98 Runners in this Tournament, It took 781 Games for Emily to out last the field.
She had to survive 52 games and 17 Rounds of Survivor Series Risk to Win it. An amazing RISK ACHIEVEMENT.........
Lets see how she done it and who she played....................:
Round 1: - the flip Survives against Emilywink (13th Seed), ranked 746 points higher.
Round 2: - emilywink Puts and end to the Union. Unionman loses 3-0 and emily's onto 4 points. For political reasons, I kinda like this result. I am one of the 58% (-: (That was a recent poll in support of Scottish Independence
)
Round 3: - 13th Seed emilywink survives against 1st Seed Greengo. Greengo was a massive 1187 points higher ranked though. Greengo's recovery and progression onto 3 points looks ominous. (Little did we know we were worried about the wrong player in taht Match Up)
Round 4: - 13th Seed EmilyWink moves up to 7 points with her elimination of 32nd Seed Occluded Front. Occluded had had a nightmare Tournament, leaving us after scores of 1-2, 1-2, 1-2, 0-3.
Round 5: - Emily suffered a SHOCK 2-1 DEFEAT in this Round versus 47th Seed Sweed Dreams
Round 6: - Emily gives Collins1916 the Wink…......Then Scuds him 3-0. 13th Seed EmilyWink up to Joint 2nd on 10 points. Collins1916 outta here on 2 points.
Round 7: - A 2-1 VICTORY against 39th Seed The Fanny.....
Round 8: - She pumped the 16th Seed and Map Specialist 2007SpaceOdyssey 2-1 in this Round......
Round 9: - Predicted Score: EmilyWink and CivilOutlaw's Match Up is delicately poised at 1-1. It looks like Emily has the last in the bag though. Emily 2 v 1 CO. ACTUAL SCORE will be updated if different. OBV it wasn't Different, Emily recorded andothe VIVTORY!
Round 10: - EmilyWink shows her class by the elimination of 81st Seed 11Joan11 who was on a very creditible 9 points. A great performance. But Emily, She is up to massive 16 Points and the Tourney lead!
Round 11: - emilywink, our 13th Seed took the Tournament lead with her 3-0 Last Round, She is on 16 Points and is the Round Hero!
Round 12: - Emily had un-finished business with the 16th Seed in this one........... Wow, In Round 12 it's really kicking off. EmilyWink the 13th Seed has just went and SCUDDED the 16th Seed 2007SpaceOdyssey 3-0. Emily takes control of the Tournament on 19 points, 2007SpaceOuttahere…..
Round 13: - The 13th Seed EmilyWink is the Round Hero and advances directly to Rd 14 and what maybe a quarter final. 3 Players need to be KO'd this Round for that to happen.
Round 14: - 1 Round short of the Quarter Finals and SURVIVAL was the order of the day in this one. She got that with a 2-1 loss versus 31st Seed Civil Outlaw.
QUARTER FINAL: - Everybody knows a wink leads to the heave ho, it's an old one and CivilOutlaw fell for the oldest trick in the book. EmilyWinks then gives CivilOutlaw the heave ho, right outta the tournament. It finished 4-1 to our 13th Seed. Emily through.
SEMI FINAL: - The 46th Seed in this Tournament Teach's Java. The 13th Seed Teach's Risk Skills. It was the Semi-Final and it was ITeachJava v EmilyWink. The unscrupulous Emily does it again, she Pumps ITeach to be within 1 Match Up of being the 1st Female to WIN a Survivor Series. These things are almost impossible to winso it could be a phenomenal achievement. I'm considering cheating to give myself a chance! Unlucky ITeach, close, but you fell 1 short of the final!
THE FINAL: - The Punisher on Pelo, The Winker from The West, The Rider on the Storm, The Hostess with the Mostess, The Teacher that Tango's, The Lady from RISK Hell, Troops, I present the Winner..... EMILYWINK
CONGRATULATIONS EMILY. An amazing display of RISK Mastery on Pelo! A PHENOMENAL ACHIEVEMENT.
BENGA - Please award EMILYWINK her winners medal.
