“Select a Replay Game” describes the option where you can select from a list of previous played public available card distributions (and where no tournament details is available for import).
This should be regarded as either:
- An alternative to a reference tournament as several federations only offer access to card distribution information. We will add information (URL) for the card distributions historic result presentation.
- As access to the popular public available card distributions easily shared for many to play and compare results – often labelled “simultaneous tournaments”. With a delay (for all to play) results are made public.
Notice – “If you would like to import a card distribution you have on a file then select Random and then after the tournament have been created select each session and select the file to import” – hereby we offer an option to import for example a BRI file with your card own distribution.
As you need might to import different card distributions per session the import takes place here – Click “Import” and select your file with a click on the “Browse” button.
Or if you would like to use the import option – please select “Random” at tab 4 – hereby you also generate card distributions to be used if your import file later have to few card distributions than required by the tournament.
