Board Game Arena

Is it just me or is the tournament Format bonkers? I have been playing pinochle for almost 40 years and have never heard of using a deck with 7 and 8. It completely changes the meld and play phases. A pinochle deck should be 9-A. I don't get this format at all.

I agree also

extremely I use to like playing games on here now i dont. The format I really want to start playing is 4 players.
