MVP 1.0 uses six seats: two Baker Street, two Moriarty and two Fleet Street at the start.

Quick Match prioritizes humans and fills remaining seats with AI after waiting. Private Room lets you invite friends; AI fills gaps in the six-seat table.

Your turn has a shared 45-second decision budget. Other recipients have eight seconds per decision. The server chooses a legal fallback on timeout.
