Also worth reiterating what you"ve previously stated that those knocked out will not be able to enter the tournament again as an alternate.

When that Alternate takes his/her seat the player is required to post a "dead" small/big blind on the first hand they are dealt
eg blinds 25-50, post 75. This is "dead". to play the hand the player still needs to at least call the big blind to continue on

Could I ask why this is?

I think further clarification may be called for... I have just noticed this in Des" first announcement that alternates wouldbe allowed -

....
Alternates will start with 10,000 chips at the start of level three. Historically, three or four players may be eliminated within the 25:50 and 50:100 levels.

This implies that all alternates will wait until the start of lev 3, regardless of when the people they replace were eliminated?
