What exactly is this for though? I mean can we have a tournament set so it tries to boost activity around the forums? Something such as "Tournament for whoever can get the most meaningful posts within one month"? Something like that? If possible, That would be awesome...I just want to know a little about it before I install it.
I can tell you this is a great little mod. Im gutted because only 3 or so weeks ago, i paid $120 for some ladders and tounrmanetns scripts to run on a dedicated ladder site that isnt anywhere near as good or easy to use as this mod....dang it lol
Ive added this mod to my new site for testing and its really good. Will be great for holding friendly clan tournaments as well as having guests join ladders and tournaments too.
1. In previous versions you can see who joined the tournament, for some reason I can't see who has joined my tournaments.
2. Also how do you unsticky a tournament. It only has a delete option, now that it's finished. I don't want to delete it but I want to unsticky it so that when people look at the tournament list the one that needs to be filled is on top.
also looking forward to the invite option for teams, keep up the good work.
very nice add on but unfortunately "Create Tournament" not work i can fill in all information after clicking ADD i end on a white side the rest is working fine like Ladder ..

Why not try and read the opening post to the mod, that would help a lot to find out.
When i view the ladder challenges page, its renders nicely under one template (dark one), but not under the green one. The text in the column headers dont wrap like in the dark one.
Anyone have a quick fix for this before I start to dissect my templates?
2.5.8 database error when I try to confirm someone's score (a draw, both with one point)
Your missing a column 'uod' which should have been created in version 2.5.2

Discovered an error when challenging someon on the ladder. If the use has a ">" or "<" in thier name, it returns and error saying the PM was not sent because user "xxxx" could not be found. For example, my username is "[>F<]djlotus", here is the error presented to someone who tries to challenge me on the ladder:
"You have successfully challenged this player. However, there was error(s) PM'ing your opponent.
The following users were not found:
[>
F<
]djlotus"
I receive the challenge, and it displays on the challeges page, however the PM is not sent.
Would it be possible/good idea to add a system where if a user has too many challenges outstanding then anyone who tries to challenge them is told 'Joe Bloggs has already been challenged by x number of players and cannot accept any further challenges' where x could be an admin set figure. Top ranked players could find themselves deluged with challenges.
