This mod was needed, a big thank you for creating this hack.

Going to test this out and provide some feedback and ideas.

When entering a comment for a tournament, the browser does not redirect, and the direct link for redirect does not work. The comment does post, just no redirect.

Not sure how difficult it would be, but giving the team creator, the ability to invite users based on either user ID or user name, would be great.
