What are infinity tournament/monthly cup?

What does the infinity tournament/monthly cup consist in? The faq entry isn't really helpful about it

I wanna play some Catchup 5 but it seems everyone play it on tournament matches.

I never played monthly, that is the tournament with the smaller participation.

Infinity is now replaced by ladder (even if there is still the old name in many links/title), namely:

• Max 1 challenge
  
• Max 2 defense
  
• Play with the same player after 14 days
  
• Challenge up toCEIL(SQRT(order))
  
• If challenger won game, overtake his opponent.
  

I think ladder is better than infinity, at least I can now understand what is going on...

A better FAQ page for Little Golem can be found here.

Wow that's quite a better FAQ indeed! :)
