-- Firstly - we'll choose an ID number for the subgame. If you've only got one subgame on the world, just using subgame 0 is fine, but if you want to have multiple games running simultaneously you'll need to allocate them different numbers. Best set up using a global variable so its easy to change later.. for this example we'll use **global $kCrowDuelSubgameID = 0**.+- Firstly - we'll choose an ID number for the subgame.
