I removed nexuiz for the games spin kickstart file (and updated the game spin wiki to delist it there) in the master branch. (I think the update is 136a10f..bea1371.) Is that all I need to do for this change to be included in F11 going forward?

Yes,
Just to re-iterate:
when a freeze is hit, we branch off to "F-11-Alpha" or "F-11-Beta" or whatever the appropriate name is for the freeze.
In this case, with an upcoming final release, I get in touch with Jesse Keating or someone from Release Engineering and ask when they plan on composing the final images, and so we know when it's an appropriate time to branch off "F-11" - this is dependent on when Release Engineering wants to/needs to compose the final images.
When something is branched off, we want as little changes as possible; the changes applied to a branch should be fixes, not enhancements or other potentially intrusive stuff. In order to "enforce" that only fixes get into a branch, we request maintainers commit their changes to the master branch, and give us the commit code(s) for the change(s) through a ticket at http://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts.
We then get the chance to collect some feedback on the changes from other people, or immediately approve and apply the changes to the appropriate branch.
Someone may want to put this procedure on the wiki. There's a list of tasks to be attached to such process as well, such as running a compose test before approving the change, or specifically testing the changes if it has anything to do with applications running on the live media, etc. That won't be me for the next couple of days though, since I'm extremely busy this week.
