Right now we are in Semi-Finals with 4 players left...
MateoGalvan vs Botsu (this is working fine)
MOLDAIVER vs Thermidor (this is broken)
MateoGalvan, Botsu and Thermidor properly have the X and -> buttons next to their name giving us the option to progress or regress them in the tournament. However, Moldaiver does not. He just beat Thermidor, but we can not progress him to the next match. This is a HUGE bug that is making us unable to continue the tournament. I can fix the problem directly in the database, but I would rather not have to do this for every tournament.
Okay, I found out what the problem is... These are the URLS to the links next to the 4 players...
MateoGalvan javascriptrogress('18', '2097', 'MateoGalvan', 'round6', '1');
Botsu javascriptrogress('18', '1719', 'Botsu', 'round6', '1');
Moldaiver javascriptrogress('18', '3028', 'MOLDAIVER', 'round6', '3');
Thermidor javascriptrogress('18', '2320', 'Thermidor', 'round6', '2');
The text in RED is wrong, it should be '2', not '3'. Its sending Moldaiver as the winner to a match that doesn't exist. So once my tournament moderator advances him to the wrong match, he loses his X/-> functions and goes nowhere. I just tested it by replacing the 3 in my database with a 2 and then he's listed correctly, however, once again, his arrow for the next match is wrong. It sends him to 2, instead of 1.
It happens in EVERY tournament, in the lower half of Round5 and beyond.
I'll look at the algorithm.

Is there a way to clear the Hall Of Fame. I just ran a quick tournament to see how it worked and would like to clear the Hall Of Fame section out now.
Otherwise, nice mod.
No.

What are the different kinds of tournaments can one have with this?
More importantly...we want to have video competitions where our members will upload their videos and other members will vote on them for the best video. Will this work for what we want to do? If not, any recommendations?
Thanks for any help
Single elimination
Last Man Standing
No, this won't work in your situation. I think want you want is something called a battle rap script but I'm not entirely sure.

Sorry I must have missed the suggestion. I don't really get it though, couldn't they just organise it and then challenge team
Not every team knows eachother. With a matchfinder they can put a anonymous challenge on a calendar/roster and other teams will be able to accept it. Think of it as a blind date. Also, if a team is like incredibly good, other teams won't accept challenges from that team. With this they don't know who made the challenge so every team get's to play.
(Includes time, the reputation of the challenger, amount of players per team, best of 3 / 5, a pop up with the details and the amount of warnings the challenger has (By disputing matches for example).

Hopefully that will clear things up
I have to agree a match finder for the ladder system would be a HUGE ADDITION!
Heres the nav bar (i'm using our other theme now so it's now showing in red and not blue as previously noted)
Just re-read the instructions, and your post, and I'd looked at the wrong folder for it's attributes... Just set it to 777 and away we go, hopefully
Thanks for your help :up:
Update
Fixed this
Turned off the auto placement of the mad into the navbar and edited the header template manually... this brought the graphics through aswell :up:
