Okay, I have an additional change to the ranking system... Remember, in double elimination tournaments, there is no 4th place, instead there are two 5th placed players. Everything in parenthesis should be admin definable; even the min and max of the ranking allocations.

Tournament Categories (point values definable)
- Local Tournaments (100 points)
- Regional Tournaments (500 points)
- National Tournaments (2000 points)

Ranking Allocations (percentages definable)
- 1st Place (50% points)
- 2nd Place (20% points)
- 3rd Place (10% points)
- 5th Place (5% points each to both players)
- The remaining 10% gets split up evenly between all other players (1 point min - 1% max)

Players shouldn't be ranked by their total number of points. Instead, they should be ranked by the top 10 scores (admin definable number) during the course of the past year. This way it doesn't require a person to attend every tournament, and ranks them simply by their best 10 performances in the past year. It would also automatically prune out retired players who don't attend events anymore; and give preference to regional and national tournaments since they are worth more points. Maybe setup a cronjob once a week to recalculate rankings?

Also, let me reiterate, that I need the ability to make it so tournaments have a MINIMUM of 16 players, and maximum of 128... with double elimination.
