context: Title: Tribal Wars
  Passage: Tribal Wars (TW) is a browser-based, real-time strategy, massively multiplayer online game set in the Middle Ages.  The game is set with each player starting off controlling a small village, with the objective being to slowly expand and conquer new villages through the formation of complex armies and a tactical combat system.  The game incorporates multiple components of teamwork, planning, and strategy.  The game allows players to collect resources, build armies, construct buildings, combat other armies (players or neutral), and conquer new villages.  The game also allows for a level of player-specific customization, in regards to village names, army types, and troop-counts.  The game operates under world-specific settings that vary from world to world.
  Title: Play-in game
  Passage: A play-in game is a game at the beginning of a tournament that forces the lowest qualifiers for the tournament to play each other before the main portion of the tournament begins.  This gives an added advantage to the higher qualifiers, allowing them to rest, while the lower teams extend themselves by playing.  Further, teams that participate in the play-in must usually play the next game against the highest qualifier in the tournament and play on the road.  Having a play-in game allows for a tournament to have a number of teams that is not a power of two, and gives an extra advantage for teams to play for, as they try to win to avoid having to play in the extra game.
