Every player has to withdraw. The tournament creator can't change a single thing once it starts. And, once at least one person signs-up, the only thing the creator can change is cancelling the entire tournament - before it starts. As the minimum players per game that you set is '4', then I would gue...

Is there an "embargo" option in Catan? I.e., an option to auto-reject all trades proposed by a player? That would prevent them from wasting time. How does it work when playing the game in real life? What is the mechanism that ensures a player can't stall the game forever? Mimicking that i...

To avoid this, only join tournaments that have skipping disabled, or elimination tournaments that only eliminate 1 player per game.
