Something like this:\r\n\r\nWhen you join you are sorted into a division based on your initial rating with a separate division every 200 or so rating points. The tournament standings list only your competition, entered players that are also in your division, but there is also a row of tabs at the top that let you check out the standings of any of the other divisions in the tournament. Pairing algorithms first try and match you against someone from your own division, but failing that against someone from a neighboring division (either someone one division above or below yours or someone within ~200 rating points from you). So you primarily face opponents in your own division, but if there aren't enough competitors near your rating you may occasionally face someone from a neighboring division. Each division gets its own podium at the end but the chat is shared because why not?"}}
