Once joined, how does the flow of the tournament look like? Especially when playing from mobile?

To ensure a smooth tournament experience on Checkmate Live, please follow these guidelines:

Stay in the Tournament Lobby: After joining, remain in the tournament lobby. When a round begins, a "Join your game" button will appear. Click it to be directed to your game automatically.
Refresh if Necessary: If your game doesn't start as expected and the "Join your game" button isn't visible, refresh the tournament lobby page. This action should display any ongoing games.
Check for Byes or Schedule: If your game hasn't started, you might have a "bye" for that round, or it may not be time yet. Verify the schedule in the "Schedules" tab.
Prompt Attendance: After each game, stay in the lobby to avoid missing your next match. You have 1 minute to join; after that, your clock starts running in the 3+2 time control.

By adhering to these steps, you'll help ensure a seamless and enjoyable tournament experience.
