Please help me!

Create an 8 player tournament. Once 5 players have joined you can click Start Tournment.

Also once you create a tournament there are buttons to adjust tournament size.

This is confusing.... Can someone with experience with this mod help?

I'm trying to start a tournament or tournaments using the xbox 360.... Pitting clan vs clan.

I would like to create a specific tournaments using different games. Mine would be used for Battlefield 3. COD MW3. Dead or Alive 5 (fighting game).

With this being set to 4 players it should be set to 4 races and each race each player should be able to submit where they finished

There should also be an option to set specific days for each race to be played

If possible it should allow the standings to show how many kills, deaths and difference for say games like COD,etc

Any info of the above or how to use this feature ?

many hanks

Any update on this please ?

I have purchased your pro version for this alone really so some update would be great, Cjheers

[IGCEMA]

Anyone else notice the mod says "Not Supported" now? I hope that isn't the case. It is so close.

[betts02]
