2026-07-23 — Seeded table pool: the lobby becomes find-and-join
The platform now keeps at least one registering SnG open per enabled table template — seeded by a keeper reconciler in game-server, respawned when a table fills, recycled when a template is disabled or edited (empty instances only; a paid registrant makes a table untouchable). Player tournament-creation is removed from the lobby (admin one-offs stay), and because creation is then structurally bounded, empty-registering reaping is deleted from the idle reaper — the litter problem it solved ("one person could create 500 tables") is unrepresentable; funded-abandoned fund recovery is unchanged.
The tournament tab gains a Play ⇄ Cash economy toggle: Cash shows live real-money tournaments where the economy is on, else a static dollar- denominated coming-soon showcase rendered straight from the cash template definitions (no tables behind it, no join affordance).
