The tournament can be that everybody plays everybody but the players are playing in different rooms and do not know against who they are playing and there is a computer program that tells them the move of the opponent. It is the case in the ssdf games because the computers do not take advantage of knowing of specific weaknesses of the opponents and shredder does not use different parameters against Junior and against Fritz and I think that it is not allowed by the rules to do it.
