Subject: Tournament play full vs free members
Message: I am playing in some large mini-tournament, and I spotted, that most of my opponents played significantly more games than myself, in spite of the fact that I play rather quickly.
Is it so that while free member is playing only 4 simultaneous mini-tournament games at the same time, full members are playing more?
I am just curious - in fact I feel that if it is so, then it is to .... my advantage (while finishing my last games I will know which results I need for which place, whether I need to play for a win or maybe draws will be OK)
Or maybe those guys are simply faster?

Message: All players can only play 4 games simultaneously in the same tournament. You can see that in the tournament table (the first number in the column "games" is number of active games)

Message: what may be happening is that the players are meeting up on line and playing several moves each. This will also shorten their "time per move" stats.

Message: Thanks munja100 for explanation. Maybe indeed this is a matter of better matching timezone.
PS I like the idea of not playing all the games simultaneously, but it could make sense to accelerate the process a bit. For example, some new game could be started when the older one is played for two months, or maybe when it reaches the move 40, not only when it is finished...
