The problem with that is some tournaments can last years - so if a BB wants (for whatever reason) to kick a certain player out, it is there fellowship and should have the right to do that.

Everything with that tournament continues with no issues. Next rounds will start just like they should. So I'm not sure what your question is about each player that is teamed up with should get a draw to make it even - the tournament will continue - no matter what the status is of the fellowship.

I'm also not sure about your example question - other then being listed for fellowship members only, tournaments have nothing else to do with fellowships - so a tournament will continue as normal no matter what the status is of the fellowship.

Subject: Re:

coan.net: I'm curious now, however, if a running tournament doesn't prevent a BB from kicking out a player, then why do players have to finish all their tournament games before they are allowed to leave the tournament. If the tournament will continue fine either way, what's the difference?

Subject: Re:

nodnarbo: I'm assuming you are asking why someone can't leave a fellowship if they are in a tournament.

I agree that it would be fine if a player could leave a fellowship even if they are in tournaments, I'm not sure exactly why that restriction is in there.

At one time I joined every fellowship that asked me to join. I also joined way too many tournaments long ago - and I went though and left a lot of fellowships I did not do much in and was "stuck" in some fellowships longer while tournaments continued. No big deal really - just waiting until those games were over and then left, but I can not think of any good reason why I should be stuck in a fellowship (of course I could just ask the BIG BOSS to kick me out, but some of the fellowships I wanted to leave had an inactive BB, so that would not work.... so I just waited.)

Sorry Bernice if I did not understand your original question.
