I'm a bit confused about how the tournament games would work though.......would there be a way of playing a series of games, or is it just a separate way of scoring?
When all the 8 players subscribe to a new tournament, the server creates and automatically subscribe the players to a number of games (the exact number depends on how many players there are in each game).
From the user point of view, you'll see a long list of new games in the
Your Games page. Inside the game there will be a box that will report the tournament's score for that particular game.
There will be a page with the score of the tournament and the list of all the games for it.
Torunament games will be counted in the game statistics and new tournament statistics will be available.
