Is it possible to limit tournament matches per person?

I made my first tournament the other day but it looks like you cannot change how many games are concurrent overall.

What I mean is for example is someone has a 12 person tournament, all 11 games start at the same time, is there a way to limit that so you are not overloaded?

Only by reading the tournament descriptions before you enter, which all quite clearly state how many games you would be playing.

I looked at half a dozen upcoming tournaments. The number of simultaneous games varied wildly from 1 game at a time to 22 games at a time.

O OK I appreciate your response. I was under the impression the concurrent games per person was related to how many games you have open against the same person not overall (I of course could be wrong).

For example in my tournament that I created, the concurrent games is only 1 or 2 which I interpreted as meaning the number of games you play against one person.

I even tested different tournament configurations and the simultaneous games changed depending on how I made groups.

For example when I changed it to a 12 person 1 winner tournament the simultaneous games changed to 11, but when I changed it to 2 groups of 7 with 3 advance players, it changed to 6 simultaneous games per person.

In both configurations I set the concurrent games per opponent to one but I did not see a setting to limit the simultaneous games overall.

I have never set up a tournament so I can't tell you. Hopefully somebody else will help out.
