Everyone has posted so I will post the rules

we just did

looks

Welcome to your next Elimination, Line it Up

In this elimination, each matchup will play on a 5x5 grid with 25 spaces. Players will alternate placing pieces on the board in order to CONNECT FOUR of their pieces horizontally, vertically or diagonally.

There is a twist.  You will each have 12 pieces, 9 of your own color and 3 of your opponent's pieces so you will decide which piece you place using opponent's pieces strategically.

Now as you know each have 12 pieces for 24 total on a 25 space board.  When all pieces are placed the open space becomes the wild card and will automatically complete any Connect Four it can be a part of.  If it completes multiple fours in a row whichever person has more four in a row wins.  If both players get a Connect Four from the wild card spot then we go to the tiebreaker.

The first person to connect four of their pieces in a row in each matchup wins this elimination, earns Bonus Leaderboard points, steal half the points of the person they beat and has the option to defect.

The losers will be eliminated and will give away half their Leaderboard points.

Each matchup will be in it's own therad

Any questions?

I will make the threads

Are we not rotating who goes first so it's more fair?

You will alternate turns and as the ones with more Leaderboard points in each matchup awwsum11 and mysterygame2 will decide who goes first

got it

I am sorry BOBROCKS333 and BBlover96, it was a valiant effort but tonight it was enough.  You have officially been eliminated from RSF Season 50: Clash of the Champions.  I hope to see you in the future. 

BOBROCKS333 and BBlover96, after being eliminated you must now choose any other player(s) still in the game to leave half of your Leaderboard points. To be clear you can leave them all to one person or divide them up between multiple people. You must do so ASAP or you do not get to leave the points to anyone.
