Still 36 more? My god, I wish they'd eliminate like 10 people in one episode to move things along.

Dr.Rota should have been eliminated by Pran and Hermilla, it was pointless to give it to Vegeta.

After 10 episode of this tournament, Piccolo has been involved in the least amount of elimations from Universe 7 so far. How has that even happened while Roshi has been involved in 5 eliminations and 18 has been involved in 4 eliminations.

Only 36 Competitors Remain in the Tournament of Power

I deliberated about Tien Shinhan's elimination a lot this week, as he technically eliminated himself to eliminate Hermila. In the end, I determined that they both get a point considering that Hermila eliminated one of the Tien Shinhan multi-form's before being taken out himself.

As of next weekend, I'll be rewatching the arc up to date, so I may add assists or make alterations as necessary in case I made a mistake or whatever, but as of now;

1. Vegeta has eliminated 8 competitors
2. Goku has eliminated 6 competitors
3. Kale has eliminated 5 competitors
4. #18, Master Roshi, & Caulifla have eliminated 4 competitors
5. Cabba, #17, Gohan, Tien Shinhan, have eliminated 2 competitors
6. Krillin, Frieza, Frost, Basil, Hermila, Brianne de Chateau (Ribrianne), Piccolo, & Jimiz have all eliminated 1 competitor

...in the space of 10 episodes (or 16 minutes in-universe) in the Tournament of Power. Next week is a break, then two episodes, then a break, then two episodes in one day, and then back to normal.
EDIT: Forgot Frieza

Frieza has taken out 2 even if 1 did run off and Krillin has had parts in 3 eliminations while Piccolo has been involved in 1.

I feel as though this needs to be discussed weekly. Frieza only has one elimination, however responsible he was for Roselle eliminating himself.

Over the next week or so, I will be updating the OP with clarification as to how eliminations are determined

True 1 elimination to non U6/U7 universe would not hurt the story or plot at all.

I wouldn't want that. The tournament is already facing some criticism with not spending enough time with some of the fighters to show off their abilities or giving some them personalities so eliminating 10 people in one episode wouldn't be the best option.

I think the pacing is fine actually, I wouldn't change it at all. Yeah there's a few fighters who I wanted to have some more screentime who didn't and vice versa but it does at least make it feel like a Battle Royal this way.

As for this episode it was about time that another Universe 7 got taken out, at least it was by someone from another universe besides 6.

Shame though that Universe 7 got yet another 3 eliminations though.

The end of the episode state this "Thanks to Tenshinhan, Hermila and Purn are eliminated". So we need to give him 1 win (Hermila) and 1 assist (Purn) for today. More interesting, it's saying that Hermila and Purn were 2 really dangerous guy, so it's an very important Victory that help Z fighters to continue. I think the execution of the episode isn't really good but the Manga version will probably make the action better and with more tension.
Thank you Tenshinhan, you really done a good job against a Guy able to eliminate Gohan and Piccolo with ease.

I have added a section to the original post outlining the rules I have been following since creating this thread. See below;
shadowmaria wrote:Tournament of Power Elimination Rules:

[spoiler]A Breakdown of the Rules is As Follows:

I've put this segment together as folks seem to be having difficulty determining what is and isn't counted as an elimination for certain characters.

Why does Goku have the elimination when Nink threw himself off the stage :think:

Why does Frieza only have one elimination and not two? :problem:

Why doesn't Krillin have three eliminations?! :evil:

I'm hoping this tag clarifies those questions for you. As more eliminations take place and more confusion is raised, more rules will be outlined below;

1. Standard Elimination: This video shows a perfect example of a standard single elimination. In this video, we see Basil eliminate Lilibeu. Basil gets 1 Elimination Point
2. A Character Uses An Energy Increase To Gain An Elimination: This video shows a perfect example of a character gaining an elimination because of the shockwave caused by powering up. For example, Goku powers up to Super Saiyan Blue, breaking the hold Nink has him in and forcing Nink off the stage. Goku gets 1 Elimination Point.
3. Multi-Elimination: This video shows us a perfect example of multiple characters gaining multiple elimination points, or a combination thereof. In the aforementioned example, Goku and Vegeta both eliminate the Trio de Dangers, and therefore Goku gains 3 Elimination Points, and Vegeta gains 3 Elimination Points. In the case where Master Roshi and Tien Shinhan both eliminated The Preecho with a combination of Lightning Flash Surprise Attack and Neo Tri-Beam, both competitors gained 1 Elimination Point Each. This video shows Vegeta eliminating Prum and Dr Rota, so Vegeta gains 2 Elimination Points.
4. Self-Elimination: This video (from 45 seconds in) shows us Roselle eliminating himself following torture and elimination from Frieza. As Roselle makes the decision to run off the battle stage and Frieza does not push or knock or hit or blast him off, Frieza does not gain an Elimination Point because he did not physically knock Roselle off the fighting stage
5. Assisted Elimination: This video is an excellent example of an assisted elimination. As you can see, despite two competitors working in tandem to eliminate Shosa, #18 is the competitor that makes the final blow that finally eliminates him. Therefore #18 gains 1 Elimination Point, and Krillin does not.
6. Double Elimination: This video shows us Hermila first eliminating a Tien Shinhan multi-form (25% of Tien Shinhan's being), followed by the tri-clops himself grabbing Hermila and eliminating Hermila, in tandem with Hermila eliminating Tien Shinhan. As both characters eliminated each other almost simultaneously, both characters get 1 Elimination Point.[/spoiler]
Hopefully that clarifies a few things.

Tien Shinhan did not eliminate Prum, Vegeta did; so he does not get the Elimination Point.

Well said and I agree that Tein was a major player in this episode and earned his 2nd ring out to Harmira!

Also glad you agree that both Harmira and Prum from Universe 2 where dangerous and really brought a good threat to the main cast of Universe 7!

Universe 2 Representing Well of in this episode! :D

Also Harmira and Universe 2 should earn 1 elimination as well for the ring out of Tien.

Universe 6 and Universe 2 are the only 2 that have gotten ring outs of Universe 7, shows IMO how much they have stepped up to the plate in this, those are Major Ring Outs! :)

Tenshinhan is the principal reason for Purn defeat. He's decisive as it's MENTIONED in the end of Episode, if Toei say we need to thanks Tenshinhan for purn losing, we need to give him 1 assist.
Vegeta himself say he can now beat Purn without the Sniper.
Tenshinhan severely weakened Purn, like Krilin for Jilcol or Preecho for Roshi.

Sorry but if Frieza doesn't get an elimination for running someone off the edge Tien doesnt deserve anything.

Most of his opponents weren't that strong but would've thought Vegeta would be the mvp so far?

Roshi said prior to taking out anyone from U4 that there were just under 40 contestants left (39) so there is actually 32 contestants remaining, not 36.

What has been shown to us is 44 eliminations, meaning 36 remaining

Roshi could have been referring to an estimate on his behalf, or the fact that of the 70 other competitors, over half of them had been eliminated

The line and circumstances, as well as the visual evidence presented to us, all indicate 36 remaining
