In order to spectate a game I'd prefere to have recorded games. I guess game 
recording is a must anyways. And as soon as we have a file like that we should 
think of something similar to HLTV, so that tournament matches can be spectated 
with a time shift while the game is going on.

Nevertheless we have the situation that AI/Player/Netplayer want to play on the same 
team(=color). p&np for example if the one is not as experienced and wants to only 
care for inns ... p&ai if we design ais that support the player in certain areas 
like discussed before.
