What is not changing? their ranks, wins, draw loses?

(and thats it)

also, how can I move "Competitions" to the top of my double navbar?
I'll upload you another script to try in few hours time.

Disable it in Tournament & Ladder Options for bottom navbar and add following code to your upper navbar
Code:
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="competitions.php">Competitions</a></td>

1. I think it would be great if there was a way to set a date cut-off for ladders. Once that date is hit then the ladder gives the admin/mod the ability to create a tournament based on the results of the ladder. The top teams would be placed high on the bracket with bye's into the second round/third round depending on the number of participants. It would also matchup teams based on their record from the ladder, so the lowest ranked teams would face the strongest teams(assuming that a bye system is not possible or doesn't make sense). This would create a league/playoff atmosphere around the mod and would be VERY helpful in my opinion.

2. Challenge Details are needed for the ladder. Basically, a place to put in the details of the match in question. A few suggestions would be Map Name, Mode, Number of players needed, Date & Time, Notes.

Feature Request: Tournament Add-on

The ability to seed players/teams in the tournament bracket.
We're in the process of starting a tournament soon and right now we have no way to determine who is placed in what bracket, is there a way to do this that we are missing or is it something that would have to be added?

Also, from the feature requests above could you tell me which ones you would consider creating? I'm just trying to figure out if this mod will fit our needs or if I need to go another route. I would also like to commend you on your work here, this is one of the few mods I have seen updated regularly and with great feedback. Keep up the great work!

Ok, what about the ability to setup the registered participants/teams for tournaments? Basically, have a way to setup what teams will face each other through the tournament and in what order.
