Oh yeah totally.. Im loving the daily updates

Got it upgraded. First class work. banana, even on the default templates, the competitors are showing as 'Tournament Winner'

Can we have something showing (an edited by message and time) if someone edits their posts? Not saying people like to change their entries after a tourney starts or anything

[Chris11987]

Is it possible to make it so a user can advance their opponent, basically admitting their own defeat, instead of needing a person that can edit to do it?

edit: The comments seem to be glitchy. My usergroup has YES for everything and can't post comments. I hit submit and nothing gets added. People in my same usergroup are able to post them, but mine won't show up.

[glorify]

I can delete a comment, but the redirect says "error, Tournament does not exist."

I have translated the mod using the VB language manager.
Problems I?ve noticed so far:
1 - When using Portuguese (my primary language) the "Join tournament" link does not appear, even with it translated. If I switch to English, it appears fine.
2 - The same happens to the "Add player" link witch is also translated.
3 - There is no way to translate the "PM me the detais" string.
4 - The + and - buttons to increase/decrease the numbers of players doesn't appear also when using Portuguese language, only when using English.
5 - When I tried to join a tournament, got this mysql error:

Invalid SQL:
UPDATE vb3_user SET tmnt_joins = tmnt_joins + 1 WHERE userid=36;

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'tmnt_joins' in 'field list'

Thats all for now.
Keep the good work!
