Hi Doug,
I don't remember the discussion you refer to, but there's plenty of
precedent for game options (including "-tournament") and actual
tournaments being completely independent.
Plotto uses a (very poorly named) option "-tournament" to select
a variant plotto game. I don't know if any other games support a
"-tournament" option.
Setting up specially named tournament boards (and special tournament
timing restrictions) at present is completely independent of
game challenge options.
