1. Database: live on the server, synced across all clients
2. Any change to the database will be reflected on all clients
3. Based on MessageType, MessageAll will send message to all client (to update a key/value pair in the database)

4. Acknowledgement (MessageACK) from each client. If no ACK => retry ~N times. After N times, disconnect client

5. Lobby: live only on the server

6. Client can only access lobby ids

7. Allow client to connect to sever and choose a lobby ids

8. Spin up 1 game instance (1 database) for each lobby

9. Each lobby will run on its own thread

11. Ping client every n ms

12. If no ACK, then disconnect client
