Just thought i would point out when updating your team name it does not update on the tournament brackets that are in progress.

Yes it should.

Upload attached file as product and it should work.

"You have successfully challenged this player. However, there was error(s) PM'ing your opponent.
The following users were not found:

F&lt

I receive the challenge, and it displays on the challeges page, however the PM is not sent.

Any ideas on w to work around this?

Very impressive bananalive. Quick question tho, I can promote a co-leader as leader but I can't demote him? is that a bug or not an option? Can it be added in a future version?

Also, It would be nice for a master admin to be able to admin all of it as oposed to only team leaders can admin their challenges, teams, and wutnot.

Again, I am loving this mod. Great work.

[WNxWakko]

just to note the fix worked.

I was wondering, is there a who's online feature in this? I remember reading a post about it but ive not seen that feature. Have you considering adding that and if its already there, how do I get it to work?
