You already picked Bruckner.  Once you select a particular composer, you can't pick him/her again - it's one and done.

Okay!  So...

Scriabin!

3.  If and when that composer is selected by two fellow game participants, he/she will be game ready.

There are quite a few composers who qualify yet do not appear as game ready. What am I missing?

Ah, okay, thanks! So there must be at least 3 votes for game ready.

It's not a matter of "at least" 3 votes; 3 is the top number and gets the composer into the subsequent game.

Thanks. Looks like I have to wait for one more hour before sending other two guys upstairs.  :D

Hard to say.  We all know that Eusebius would rather sit around thinking than actually do anything.
