		<description>If you say that ALL players should be able to participate in the open tournaments,there should be at least a limited number of tournaments be available to the non-premium players</description>

		<description>Simply read the posts in the forums...
Many players left FB for that issue, at least i dont see many very active players anymore.
Simultaneous tournaments had a much larger number of participants - often up to over 40. 
There was a competition and noone could buy his ranking.
Reestablish a competition system without a currency like funnyz, because paying for losing counts the weaker players out. Combine it with an ELO-like system which i would consider an improvement to the cumulative system used before.</description>
