Tournament question

Are tournaments only available for subscribers? If not, where can I find tournaments open for those who haven't subscribed? thanks

Yes. In general tournaments are only for subs.
There have been a few non-sub (test) tournaments, but I wouldnt wait for them to come around...

I don't see why not. Non subscribers have to tolerate advertising which presumably generates revenue for the site, while subscribers are free of this. Surely it is just a different way to pay (albeit perhaps less profitable).

Much less profitable if you ask me, although I must admit that I dont have any knowledge about how many cash advertisements bring in.

Maybe those just pay for the 6 free games non subs can play😉

Maybe - I just distrust harsh judgements. There are lots of reasons for non subscribers - eg a number of members in my Ireland Club are young school kids.

As a non-subscriber you can join a club, and some of the clubs have tournaments for their members. They are separate from the regular tournaments. However, the "six games in progress" limit might be a problem.

Someone in the club scene can probably supply better information here. It could be that a nonsub can join a club but still cannot participate in their private tournaments.

It's something for you to check into if you're really interested in tournaments.

Non Subs can't join those tournaments, but they can participate in the club forums and earn a club ratings.
