Any possible way to add a feature so you can change who's playing who in a tournment bracket?

[champendk]

Is it possible that a check-in system is going to be a part of the upcomming release?

I think its the most importent feature missing rigth now imo... since alot of our players still sign up, but dosn't show up on the day of the tournament.

i havn't testet the league yet but is it possible to set the numbers of players in each group? as i need a specific amount.

I rather have number of teams in each group than number of groups..

ones again

this mod rock

[champendk]

One more thing :-)

Ad a option to delete a match from upcoming and played matches. Like where you admin submit score, there could be a option to delete the match.

1. Not really able to remedy this, but added vBulletin Options to select which columns you want for ladders, so you can reduce the width of the table and that should stop it overflowing.

2. Fixed for next version.

Having an issue when 'Free Agents' join a team that they aren't removed from the Free Agents list. Possible to just add an option for the admin to delete Free Agents?

And now when you click on a Category to view tournaments inside of it, instead of being aligned to the width of the page, it is on the right only.
