My tournament is now 'Awaiting Players', and there are currently 10 players who have joined. They're showing in the list like this:
1. Mr. X
2. Mr. Y
3. Mr. Z
4. Mr. A
etc..
Are the pairs generated like that, 1vs2, 3vs4, 5vs6 etc.. ? Or will the tournament make some kind of random pairing once the tourney is full?
On joining the tournament each player get assigned a random number. The player with the lowest random number will pair with the player with the second lowest random number, etc.

The random number = the number you see next to your name ( 1. Stifmeister 2. Mr. X) etc. or is there some kind of hidden place for the random numbers?
What I mean is does that list have anything to do with the final pairings? Or is it just to show who have joined...

For LMS competitor list is sorted by slot. However, the numbers next to the competitor's name are just for decoration.
As the pairing only happens once all the people sign up, the last person to sign up could be paired with any of the other competitors.
Nice looking mod! I've installed it but not got it working yet, if anyone else is having a similar problem it needs the PHP Calendar Extensions installed (compile PHP with --enable-calendar). You can find more info on the PHP website.
Icon next to player. <= Removes player from tournament.
There are links at bottom of each tournament to edit, delete or finish (for LMS) them.
Using the admin control panel for adding/editing/removing tournaments would mean that only administrators could control tournaments which not everyone wants.
Times inputted into the tournament system should be in timezone GMT+0 and then they will get converted to your timezone.
Question:
On the 1 vs 1, are you going to allow users that creates a tournament to only proceed the users that won based on the replied they post?
Because I don't want to grant that usergroup to edit the tournament since it allows ALL users edit, and can cheat the system.
Question:
Is there a way to patch an e-mail notification?
The Pm system won't cut it cause sometimes their PM could be fulled.

I will be adding more usergroups options with next release, the exact extent to this hasnt been decided.

Woops, completely forgot about full pm inbox Yeah I'll add email or bypass inbox quota

As for the time, I'm not quite getting it.
When you create the time you input in GMT+0. It gets saved as timestamp in timezone gmt+0. When vBulletin displays time then it gets converted into that users timezone (for example 5pm USA is not the same as 5pm Australia)

I dont think so - check your primary (and secondary) usergroups permissions
