vb.org Archive - Major Additions - Forum Tournaments & Ladders

i dont understand this. I get the tournament concept but whats it for? What does a user have to do to win the tournament? post, creat a post, or/and upload a picture? i just dont get it? i installed it and have 5 members. So now what the members do to advance to the next round?

waiting on ur reply

great mod though i just dont get the whole concept

Mike.. most people use this mod for video games, so the actual matches or game is played on Xbox or Playstation or wherever.

This mod isn't the game, it is just used to keep track of the scores, & ranks, etc.

It can be used for anything you want, but you have to set it up to work for whatever it is that you are doing.
I have seen people use it for many different things. Robdog, just did it for a hot girl contest, so it is open to use for any kind of competition you want.

I think that is what you were asking. :)

I'd like the ability to have numbers appear next to the users names in the tournament. So we could seed the teams 1-16. Similar to how the NCAA Brackets are. Not sure if it already has this or not, but it would be a great feature. IMO.

But when i try this on the ladder, it goes:

A-1000 Vs B-1000 ( A wins)> -> A-1003 Vs B-997.

Is this ok? The value os "K" is 50.

The elo rating calculator (ladders.php?do=elorating) is wrong. The formula used to work out the change in elo rating has changed recently and I have yet to update the formula for elo rating calculator.

Would it be possible to allow admins to edit a ladder match score?
I am having a few requests to fix errors in score entries.

The elo rating system used in the ladder system, does not allow the working out of elo rating before match to change the match results.

This is an excellent mod for what all it does... Unfortunately, it is not quite what I am looking for. I'm looking for something that will allow single player games... for instance Classic Arcade games and pinball tables.

I just need something that will allow a person to join the tournament, submit their high score along with a screen shot attachment. They also need to be able to update their score up to a specified cut off time/date. The system would then rank a person based on their submitted score.

Anyone know if such a system exists?

This is a nice mod, thanks.

One question though. When someone is challenged, why does it show up like this in the pm?
