If there's a tie for first, do all winning players receive a sapphire?

Does the winner of the game receive a copy of Pokemon: Omega Sapphire?

@Thurhame and D3f3nd3r: I would suggest that you withdraw your challenges, unless you feel confident that you can get exactly 2 victories.

Explanation: You are currently at 4 points, which ensures that you will not be last. The four lowest scores are currently 0, 1, 2 and 2. To get these players to 4 points each would require a total of 4 + 3 + 2 + 2 = 11 points. However, only 20 cards remain in play, which can account for at most 10 points (not to mention that Hyperion has already used 10 cards). So, one of those 4 players will be last, no matter what. Hence you are safe from last place, but might have some difficulty getting to first place. On the other hand, if two of your cards have different values, you can offer the higher one to someone with 5 points (not necessarily me, don't want to be self-serving here), and challenge them with the lower card. That will put them at 6 points and create an extra sapphire.

Please think about it.

[Xalxe]

Due to the site outage and my work schedule, you have until 9pm Eastern to conclude your matches. Remember, if you are holding cards at the end your score will be dropped to 0.

[Thurhame]

Haha, what good are extra saphires if they're not mine?

Eventually, you will either be the last player remaining, or you will be eliminated. If you are eliminated, there is nothing to lose by allowing more sapphires to exist. If you win, then more sapphires in existence is better.

Tell you what: If you give me that extra point and you are still playing next round, I will give you the extra sapphire. The same goes for D3f3nd3r, but the offer is only available to the first one of you to take it, because otherwise, this would defeat the purpose.

Although, like I said, if you feel confident you can get 2 victories, you can go for it, yourself.
