Semifinals
The challenge for the semifinal round was to name cities without the letters A & E. Any format of the city name was acceptable as long as it met the criteria and was accepted on the map. Diacritics of A and E were considered A and E and were not allowed.
The first scoring criteria was the number of cities.
The second scoring criteria was the total population.
The third scoring criteria was the number of countries/territories.
The Third place match
I planned to do a third-place match, but we never did quite got to do it. ProgrammerNerd4 did it but didn't do it right, and Larantinies never responded in time. Thus I decided to take the scoring from the Semifinals into consideration and award ProgrammerNerd4 third place.
The Final
The final took place between Athlonian & u/Sir_Scoots
The challenge for the final round was to name cities in order of their population, thus creating a population ladder. They started from high to low. Each city added must have a smaller population than the previous one. If you add a city with a higher population, you will have to remove it. If the city added in has a lower population than the previous one, it needs to stay in no matter how low the population is. You cannot revert; thus, you must be very careful before typing the city. You can use 3 jokers, which means 3 lower population cities you can override. Highlight the city before you remove it; I will know it's a joker.
The first scoring criteria was the number of cities.
The second scoring criteria was the total population.
The third scoring criteria was the number of countries/territories.
