In the so-called Drop Out contest the number of players are reduced bit by bit every round. У кожному раунді гравці з найменшою кількістю очок будуть вибувати, а решта гравців перейде до наступного раунду. The player with the most points in the final round is the winner of this contest.

The minimum number of players which will be eliminated (Drop Out) is determined in the following way:

• Гравці = number of players left
• ROUNDS = number of rounds left to play
• DROPOUT = minimum number of players to get eliminated
• DROPOUT = rounding up ( Гравці / ROUNDS )

Some examples:

• Гравці = 25
• ROUNDS = 5
• DROPOUT = rounding up ( 25 / 5 ) = 5

• Гравці = 10
• ROUNDS = 4
• DROPOUT = rounding up ( 10 / 4 ) = 3

• Гравці = 311
• ROUNDS = 19
• DROPOUT = rounding up ( 311 / 19 ) = 17

In case of equal points the number of players which will be eliminated might be higher that the calculated Drop Out.

приклад:

Гравці = 10 | ROUNDS = 4 | DROPOUT = rounding up ( 10 / 4 ) = 3

Оскільки всі гравці на позиції 6 отримали 20 очок, всі троє гравців будуть виключені. In case one of them only got 19 points, the other two players would move on to the next round.
