i too am having the problem with the latest version requiring a password to unzip. (using default windows XP unzip)
no other versions have had this problem and i just went back and found the link to 2.7.6 pre and it is fine.
thanks again banana for this awesome mod and continued support for it!
edit: i tried extracting it with WinRar on another pc and you can without any password request.
edit2: if you take the last space out of the name of the zip file "vB_Tournaments+Ladders v2.7.6 .zip" and rename it "vB_Tournaments+Ladders v2.7.6.zip" it works fine using the windows default unzip program.
Hoping you might be able to help me with this bananaalive. One of my users just created a tournament, and we're getting the following error any time we try to access the tournament from the list. I don't seem to have a way to delete it except by going into it, which we can't do while that error is there, so I'm hoping you could tell me how I could fix this myself somehow.

Still open, and a top 10k website by most measures. Long time no see Jaxel.
Just to give a bit more background info regarding the issue above, I've taken a look at the database (though resisted the urge to do any fiddling), and noticed round9, round10, round11, and winner. We've had some server instability lately, so I suspect the tournament was setup during one of those, and just didn't setup right.
I have a suggestion for this already great mod. What about a matchfinder for the ladders? Some sort of calendar where you/a team can submit a match to a certain day and time. Challenge options should be possible, like this allowed, that allowed etc. I think this will make this mod even better.
