Starting My Own Tournament - How?
Well, when I do that nothing happens. I kind of assumed that was because I've not yet played the needed 5 games on this site to play tournaments. Or not?

I'm fairly new to chess.com - I'm only in the middle of my 5th game. But I've played a fair amount on other chess servers. A few correspondence chess playing friends and I want to play a small round-robin type tournament with each other and I'm the one to organize it. I've not been able to play tournament chess here since I've not yet completed 5 games on this server so I'm not sure how tournaments work on chess.com.
I therefore have a couple of questions about setting up my own tournament:
a) it looks like it is possible to set up your own tournament here and make it invitation only - right?
b) is it possible for people to participate in my tournament even if they have not yet played 5 games on chess.com?
c) does the server provide organizational tools (i.e. make parings for your, maintain stats, etc.) or do I need to do that myself?
Any help you can give would be much appreciated. Thanks.
