I am just amazed at how quickly this mod if progressing!
Installed 1.8.
Few more suggestions.
1st, Might it be possible for the tournament winner to be shown in another color? Maybe the player or team that wins be shown in red, etc?
2nd, I still really think a space between "pairings" on the administrative side of the event would be helpful.. to minimize confusion. (For the first round)
3rd, Ability to show in user profiles Tournaments won.
Looks GREAT banana. Excellent work. Voted MOTM, btw. Anyone running a live demo of default 1.8?
If I install 1.8, will it overwrite old custom templates? Will it keep current tourneys in place? I know I'll have to edit the old ones to match the new features.

Yes it keeps current tourneys in place.
Yes it overwrites templates (I think.. I always say allow overwrite)..
