Appears to be a new procedure, that when an account is closed, an advancing player is deemed to be eliminated from a tournament and the next player in the group advances.

There is a bug, possibly connected to the account being closed in the last round.

The closed account (eliminated player) is shown as receiving the gold. The winner (at least tied for first) was awarded the silver medal.
