For making tourney games

1.Make a game
2.Get someone to join then drop the game
3.Let eveyone else join

Yes it is genius only albert einstien could have devised such a complicated procedure...

If you want to the make the game yourself then yes(and as you probaly hosting the tourney its your job to set up games if no one has palt isnt it)

I've seen a few games without ANY players in them, so I guess you can just start it and then drop it immediately.
It only seems to work like that for private games, though. Public ones just disappear if you drop them immediately after creating them.

If you have premium, you can create a password game - and drop out of it (Write down the game number before dropping it alng with the password)

A LARGE WORD OF WARNING:

IF, HOWEVER, ANYONE DROPS THE GAME WHILST YOUR WAITING FOR IT TO FILL - IT ERASES ITSELF

I think that still only works if you have tourney priviliges.
