Ok, for the succeeding Chain Break Ceremonies, I'll always use your list that you posted in your private rooms. If you haven't made a list yet, make one now. Please start a new post everytime you change your list. You can change your list as much as you want. You must update your list at least once per cycle (round). This ensures that we are left with active players.
Everytime a Chain Leader is determined, I will give everyone a chance to update their Chain Break list (including the Chain Leader) for 24 hours. If you don't want to update it anymore, then that's fine. After the 24-hour period, no more updates will be allowed. I will then use the last list you posted as your pick for the Chain Break Ceremony.
The Chain Break Ceremony will work like this. Whoever is on the top of your list will be considered your "pick", that is, s/he will follow you in the Chain. If your top pick has already been chosen, then I'll use your second pick, and so on, moving down your list.
If a player did not make an UPDATED list, then that player is not eligible to be picked and will be skipped, even if someone put him/her on top of the list. This will ALMOST GUARANTEE your elimination. If more than one player did not make an updated list, then they'll be skipped until the end.
If at the end of the Ceremony we have 2 or more players not picked because of not having an updated list, then we'll do the following to break the tie. We'll do every number until only one person is left and is eliminated.
1. I will use the list made by the last person picked to pick the next person in the Chain.
2. Then I will use the list made by the Chain Leader to pick the next person in the Chain.
3. Then I will get the average rank (from the Chain Break list) of the unpicked players. Lowest average is picked first, then the next lowest, and so on until we have an eliminated player. If there is a tie in the averages, then we'll use the Chain Leader's list to break the tie.
This may look complicated, but we probably won't use all of them especially if everyone is active!
Questions, post here!
