If a disconnection occurs later on in the game, the tournament staff may adjudicate and thus award a victory to the player that appeared to be winning. Otherwise, a close game without an obvious winner may be restarted based upon the decision of the tournament staff. D. Players are not permitted to play the winning civilization twice in a row. This applies to matches in Bracket Stage II, Quarter-Final, Semi-Final and Final games E.
