Is there a MINIMUM number of players for a tournament in the current V:EKN Tournament Rules (2010 Season or earlier)? I cant find it anywhere. (I know the game is better with 4 or 5 players, but as i asked: there is a minimum? or a maximum?)

See also: http://www.white-wolf.com/vtes/index.php?line=veknRules.html section 3.1.2 The judge will randomly and impartially assign players in groups of five. In the event that the number of players is not evenly divisible by five, the judge will assign players in groups of four and five, such that as many groups as possible contain five players. If the players cannot be divided into groups of 4 and 5 (i.e., there are 6, 7, or 11 players), then the judge may elect to use a seating arrangement in which some players sit out each round (while still ensuring that every player plays the same number of games, usually equal to one less than the number of rounds).

Every table in a tournament has to have 4 or 5 players. Therefore 4 is the minimum number of players necessary for a tournament. The maximum per table is 5. There is no maximum for the tournament as a whole.
