I've fixed the longest win streak error and it will be released with the next version

No worries, totally worth it for such an excellent mod .

EDIT:

It appears I was a bit too hasty, as I've just noticed I missed a few more things .
Line 511;

<if condition="$comment_delete"><li class="smallfont"><a href="javascript:deletecomment('$comment[id]', '$tid', '$comment_userid');">$vbphrase[delete]</a></li><else /><li></li></if>

Line 723;

</tr></tbody></table>

Lines 902-903;

<input class="button smallfont" value="$vbphrase[go]" type="submit" /></div></form></div>
</form>

Then missing closing tags for <img> at 828, 956, 974, 992, 1999, 2002, 2003 & 2422.

I've attached the product with the changes (including the change made by Lord Ninja), but thought I'd type out in case you've significantly edited the product since I posted the last one.

2 for 2. upgraded and works

[King Fly]

awesome...about to update now

[King Fly]

dont relly see anything different in the ladder part of the mod with 2.72 and has there been any thought to these?

here are some features i would love to see to the ladder part
1. admin being able to submit scores in ladder.
2a. auto thread creation upon challenge acception
2b. the option to have that thread have a poll and be able to set that poll to a winning number [ i use this for rap battles so say when the poll hit 3-0 or 5-w/e it would close]
2c. upon closing maybe have it set to take the poll results as the score the players need to submit, thus eliminaton the need to have players submit the score...especially the ones who lost since i find they seem to not want to input their score
3. ELO ranking in postbit with actual rank number

thats all i can think of for now....let me know if you think you could incorparate this

[AzzidReign]

I get this error when I go to update:
Warning: implode() [function.implode]: Invalid arguments passed in [path]/admincp/plugin.php(1986) : eval()'d code on line 9

[KrU$ty]

Im getting the following error when viewing upcoming matches:

Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in [path]/competitions.php on line 3426

I also got errors when updating, but the error messages were too fast for me to copy.
