All round three questions answered here. If you don't see your question and answer here I may have missed it--just re-post in the thread. I believe I have answered everything and I am also sending a pm to these players with the same information:

In two rounds we have lost 820 Players
what about bounty on Blitzaholic? I saw he didnt play in round 2? does it mean that he is eliminated and will not play anymore? what will happen with his bounty?
Correct—he played one game only
will there be any classic maps in round 3?—Yes I will make more this afternoon
Pandemonium wrote:Is R3 still on the same rule: win 1 of 3 to go on?
We will continue to stay with the same format—someone posted we are losing about 20% of the starting players each round so I anticipate we will continue to lose at least ten percent for a while.
firth4eva wrote:This rule kind of needs to change because technically everyone could advance.
Technically yes—but realistically no and I have done this format before and it works well. This is a larger scale but we have already lost over 800 players in two rounds
TheTycoon wrote:Can we get some more Classic Map games? I don't much care about the other preferences.
More games will be made today but only about 250 and there will be all kinds of maps—157 classic game were created this round and I will make about 50 more today but that will be it.
Aboikos wrote:A small request: next round (4) could we have other maps than arms race with no spoils/standard spoils, please?Thx. Aboikos
Are you wanting arms race with specific spoils or are you wanting different maps than arms race?
drunkmonkey wrote:HighlanderAttack wrote:Any game you cannot get into with the round three pass code means it is a bounty game.
Do we still get to guess at the passcode?

Guess away—if you get in great but you won’t—I am making them impossible to get into—like kjsosipdjfskldmfj—if you can figure that out good luck
All stats that I am going to do will be updated by the end of the weekend
so should i go for straight wins or different maps,
since i startet new here, i have played more classic,
and the other maps first time.
do you have a list concerning this two options?
This is your personal preference. I will not have any lists with players playing different maps until they post their results after the tourney is over. I think winning the most games in a row to start the tourney has a better chance. Winning on most unique maps will mean you will need to be in the tourney a long time and I am sure we will have a few that have won on nine already. That being said you could go for both.
HighlanderAttack wrote:For the stat seekers--I will have some time this weekend and I will post some stats for sure. I had a choice to start round three with a really busy week and not get the different kind of stats done and not clean up the front page and archive round 2 information OR start the round and catch up on those things. I will not let the tourney effect my job and my real life, but I will also do those things when I can. I did not want to hold up the tourney just for stats and a little archiving and updating bounty winners. I will have time this weekend and you can be assured that I catch all those things up.
I can also do wonders with excel so like I have said before if your games come up with a pattern playing the same players from round to round or alternating with players every few rounds I will catch you. For those of you who let me know your mistakes feel free to keep them coming. It is good information for me and it lets me know you are not trying to take advantage. Remember to play every game out as they all count. If someone has to be disqualified it will happen after the fact of the game.
I have also kept up with pm's for mistakes and passwords up until this morning and I will catch up all questions from the thread. I have my son tonight and he goes on a cruise with his mom so this will be one of my last checks on the thread until he goes to be and frankly I am so tired I may not even get back on CC tonight. Hang in there and everything will be updated and answered sometime this weekend at the latest
