Heres my suggestion: (if not already suggested)

Game Challenges, not a Tournament, but Challenge...
I have seen this on other IPB Arcades and is a fun way to play.

The idea of the challenge is much like a tournament, but doesn't require a set ammount of players to start.

The Challenge will be set to a certain game, like a tournament, and then all the players of the arcade can play, the challenge can be set to a specified time limit before it ends, IE: 7 days to play, 30 days to play etc.

Each player will be allowed a certain number of tries during this time period, say a total of 10 trys within the set time frame to try and reach the best score possible. (it should be up the the challenge creator to decide how many trys each player gets)

At the end of the time frame the player with the best score wins.... and is rewarded points.

Basiclly the Challenge does not require a set number of players to begin, and does not have a set numbers of days to play before being disqualified and allows anyone to play.

Its basiclly an open Tournament, but seeing as it is different from the Tournament is should be called something different, so I thought Game Challenge would be nice.
