My current game is hilarious! Don't have a clue who is in an alliance with who! The best thing is everyone is so up front about their alliances and a strom is brewing ;)
It is true that if you look at the top row, they are all just about still in and the bottom row only has me and 2 others in! Oh well- I'm enjoying it- think my days are numbered anyway lol!
