As far as I can see is the same startposition in all my games in the same tournament.

That means that my black games are equal in the starting position as my opponents when they play black. The same appears in my white games

lol
A quick view in other games, in the same tournament, showed me exactly the same startingposition as well. I'm not sure the position is the same for the whole tournament, but I think yes

In that case it's a fair tournament

The tournament I joined is a small one (5 players), it makes me curious for a bigger tournaments, everybody in the same position?

Gouwe gozer: I believe on the tournaments, it would depend on what the creator chose. There is the option when creating tournaments with games with "random" positions, to have everyone have the same set up or not.

Fencer: I seem to recall playing in some tournaments (not here at BK) where that approach was used, and it was a great option. It works exceptionally well with variants like fischerrandom progressive chess--where you can avoid having an over-analyzed starting position, but at the same time you don't want to give some players far more favorable/inferior positions than other players.
