Alright, couple of issues I've noticed since our first big tournament.
It doesn't allow the reserves to check in, then once the tournament starts, it does not allow me to swap them in with those that didn't show up. So currently the reserve system is broken and not working. It should allow them to check in like everyone else, then at the start of the tournament, if someone doesn't show within the core sign in, they get slotted into the bracket when it is generated. I had many upset people that I couldn't slot them in manually.
Also the reporting of who won needs to be more clear on what they need to enter in. They didn't know if they needed to do W/L or 1-0 or what. We also had people submit their results that they won and their opponent didn't submit anything so they wouldn't advance on. So I had to manually advance them. Maybe do a simple radio button on who won and advance the person but then push them back if the other person contests it by saying they won instead. Or even just do a check box on who won, not a text field.
Also, when people comment on the tournament page itself within the comment section. It says there is 2 pages of comments, but then I click on the next page number from the first one, it just refreshes the page and does not take me to the second page of comments.
There is also the issue of names. A persons username on the website is different than in the game. So people don't know who to find when it comes time to compete. So it would be nice to not use their website name and make them enter in a different name, their in game name.
My biggest issue though is the reserves not being allowed in. Would be nice to also have a chat room on the tournament page itself as well, so that way the players can talk to organize the games.
