may be a stupid question but just getting used to this
Where can a member view his team/s without searching the teams list ?
Is it possible to create a tab so its easy to get to for players to add others to the team

I see you made changes to the tournament layout. From a personal point of view I didn't like it as it brought into play scrolling bars on the larger brackets. Is there a way to remove them and go back to the 4.4.4 look? had a play with the settings and couldnt really figure it out.
A feature request, would it be possible to add the ability for users to submit scores without necessarily setting up challenges beforehand? Or, alternatively, allow the optional setting of to set the final score at the same time a challenge is created. Essentially if two players just want to play a random game at any time, it'd be less clicks for them to do so.
Additionally, I saw your video for customizable fields in ladder challenges, however I don't find where to create those customizable fields.
I really need/could do with a way of changing permissions on a whole season, or possibly just a league. I'm running a set of leagues with 2 seasons a year, so i've grouped all the leagues into a season and would like to be able to restrict access to this season to only paid members.
Which brings me into point 2, Pay to play. My current solution is to use vBulletin's built in payment system to change people into a specific user group. The problem then would be regulating access to the leagues based on a user group. Any suggestions or assistance on this one?
Last one is simply that with tournaments you can have people signing up before the start of the tournament, but with leagues this isnt allowed, and people only seem to be able to sign up once the league has started. Again if we're advertising a league in advance of its start (Because it's a paid entry/prize fund league) then we'd like people to be able to sign up before the start date.
