Can someone help me out with LMS? When I clicked on the link for an explanation it talks about shooters. We're in the process of trying to start a tournament on a fighting game. However we need everyone to play everyone once through(like a round robin) is that how LMS works?

No. LMS mod is just a tally where the player/team with highest number of points wins.

You could use LMS for round robin if you submitted a win by giving them extra point. The rounds would not be calculated and the results of each round would not be displayed.

So the LMS would is better suited for one match tournament? Where everyone would face off and the person with the most points in that one match would be the winner?

Assuming that is the case and I know I've asked you a bunch of times already(so I'm probably driving you crazy already) are you closer to having an eta on when we would have a round robin and the other options that I posted awhile back?

What I would like to see is a double elimination option. Tournament maker 2.1 has this if you need to see an example.

Banannalive, can this be added to this mod?

new MAJOR issue with tournaments...
http://www.8wayrun.com/competitions.php?do=view&id=21

4 players left... error in BOLD
OOFMATIC (javascriptrogress('21', '319', 'OOFMATIC', 'round6', '2')
Icychains (javascriptrogress('21', '2988', 'Icychains', 'round6', '1')
DustbusterGF (javascriptrogress('21', '3056', 'DustbusterGF', 'round6', '2')
jadilla (javascriptrogress('21', '3138', 'jadilla', 'round6', '2')

Advancing OOFMATIC forward blocks both DustbusterGF and jadilla from advancing, since their round6 spot is taken. Advancing either DustbusterGF or jadilla forward, blocks OOFMATIC from advancing, since his round6 spot is taken (even though its not his round6 spot). I'm going to edit the tournament in my database to fix it; but you should fix this for the future.

Fixed in next release. It should be available in few hours. If I just upload the competitions.php here then it will mostly likely cause errors in the other areas of the modified.

It's on my list of things to do. But I'm very busy atm, which gives me less time to code.
