Survivor tourneys: Are two pairs always eliminated each round? Does it always reduce until it reaches minimum?

Survivor tourneys: Are two pairs per section always eliminated each round?
eg, if % attrition is one percent, is one table always gone from each section each round?
Or if attrition is less than 13%, does the tourney reduce to eight or more tables instead of seven?

Yes, it will always eliminate at least 1 table. The code contains:
if ( tentative_tables_to_be_tossed == 0 ) tentative_tables_to_be_tossed = 1 ; // take out at least one table

tentative_tables_to_be_tossed is the result of multiplying the number of tables by the elimination percentage.

This isn't done in the last round, though. And we'll never eliminate down to just 1 table.
