tammykins has effectively stalled this tournament, nearly indefinitely.

I actually think it might be quicker to find a replacement player and get those 5 games replayed than wait for them to finish. However, i think I'll wait rather than do this.

Here are the current standings, assuming that tammykins games stand. One of tammykins unfinished games is clearly going to be won by GamesOnTheBrain, and I've put that in these standings.

Only one other of tammykins' games affects the final standings. In her game with tphon, adriaan and Payton, it is clear from the halfway mark that tphon or adriaan will win it.

If tphon wins it Games will miss out on the finals despite losing his games by a total of one point!!!

tammykins has now been gone for over 2 weeks. It's not clear if she is going to return and I dont know if I want to wait much longer.

as above the only game left that influences the result is game #13. Halfway scores have tphon at 60, Adriaan at 59 and the other two well behind.

9 animals are left to buy, and I've calculated current scores. tphon has pulled away to lead by a total of 15 points. Both tphon and Adriaan have 1 market left to touch, and appear to be about to get them. Apart from that they have little significant scoring left to do.

In other words, I think it is clear that tphon is going to win this. I'd rather the game gets played out but also I dont want to wait until the games are officially abandoned.

So, I think I'll have to bit the bullet and award tphon the win. Not a satisfactory ending but unless anyone else has better ideas....?

tphon is marked as being away until 15th June so I'll wait for him to return before making a final decision. Any other suggestions?

Sadly, I think this is your only course of action....

I would PM the others playing and see how hey feel too maybe?

no further comments, so I'll just go ahead with the above option.

In 3 of the 4 unfinished games I was able to work out the likely winner and I've awarded them the win. The last game doesnt affect standings so I've just left it unfinished in the table.

Final table:

It's a bit ironic, that my final spot was so very close, but now I'm about to win the whole tourney. 2 victories for me after 3 games, and I have a very safe loss margin against almondralf who should beat me with 33 points in the last game. It's a variant 2 game and currently I'm ahead of Ralf with 17 points with 3 animals left in the deck...
