i understand the why you have made it harder to kill early in the set with reduced returns. this has also encouraged suiciding, in my opinion early set restarts should start with only what you start with originally

the entire formula on returns against suiciders needs reworking, qz, you know what i'm talking about.

a little off track ... but why do we even have restarts in tourney? it is my opinion that if you take tourney at face value, it is not possible to play to a competitive finish if you begin with a one week deficit. so allowing late-starts and re-starts is encouragng bad actor behaviour. why not just have everyone wait until next month? i would prefer that death and purple in tourney translate as "game over - please join game C next month." if tourney entry was also closed after day 10, some of the bad actor issues might get nerfed.

if gets purpled then no restart bonuses.

yes that would be good. the way it is they restart with enough to hit out of protection and one hit one civ takes some turns

why not just remove killing altogether problem solved ^_^
