Seem to be too types of robot tourneys "race" and "reward". What's the difference?

Psyche (pron. sahy-kee): The human soul, spirit or mind (derived, personification thereof, beloved of Eros, Greek myth).

Robot races are $0.25 to enter right now. Only award BBO masterpoints and prestige for winners :ph34r:
And a little known fact is, the boards are predealt. Everyone in the tourney gets to play the same boards at some point, but in random order. Total points scoring.

Robot rewards have different fees, and earns prizes and BBO MP. All boards are random and total points.

Thanks for the info, all. No doubt this is all apparent somewhere in the help files but I don't find it easy to find, which is a separate point worth noting I feel.
