i have installed latest version too, will try unistalling and will post again
First of great job. Adding the challenge options so quickly is very impressive. Ive worked with alot of gaming scripts and this one is very professional. Can I suggest some future upgrades that have worked well on some of the major gaming sites I have worked on.
1. Dedicated rules pages for each ladder.
2. When reporting a loss, the losing team picks a man of the match from the opposing team.
3. Leader board of man of the match.
4. Set staff to individual ladders or groups of ladder with different permission sets.
5. Ticket system ( via pm ) that can be viewed by only the staff assigned to that ladder.
6. Automatic achievements on ladder. Ie team wins 5 games in a row or loses 3 straight games. Icon on team page for each acheivement.
7. Option for drop down menu for certain challenge options ( ie time/date option )
8. Option to let teams insert a youtube video on their team page.
Thats all for now, hope you dont think Im asking for too much. Just suggestions to improve an already great script.
