Are they all vs. all?
For example if the group size is 2, you play 2 games one of each colour against you opponent.
If the group size is 5 as is the case in these tournaments you play 8 games on of each colour against your opponents.
I hope this clarifies your question and ALL FUTURE questions about tournament games.

I believe there is an error, the mid level tourney is written as group size 128, i am sure it will be adjusted to 5 like the other two when the oversight is picked up by admin.
here is a control c of the whole thing
