Yes, that's what I was meaning.
I mean that it is global in the sense that is has the scores of for
whole empathy contact list, it's intended to be synced with your
telepathy contacts. I dont mean to mix the highscores of different
games, I mean to mix highscores of your friends of the same game
(sudoku, or other).

If sudoku multiplayer is based on scoring and if there's going to be a
competitive sudoku, then  it wouldn't need to be a real-time
communication. The competition would be to score higher than your
friends.
