Hey Banana, I just wanted to let you know I'm going to try to use your system to start a Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2(and other games to come) FPS competition site at www.gamescrim.com

Kudos on all the work on this, it's really impressive and I think we could have a good time using it as it already exists. Other competition/tournament/ladder sites are basically the same functionality, even less in some cases.

I was wondering how hard it would be to make a few tweaks, I've been doing vb for many years and am familiar with editing and tweaking but I'm not a code expert or anything. Here are the things I would like to do, they are pretty simple:

1. Be able to have 'players' show up as 'teams', since it will be a teams only website. There are a few places where it still shows up as players, even though I have selected it to be a teams tourney. I know this is really simple, I can probably do this on my own.

2. Gaming Team logos, you already have it setup where a logo can be setup for every entrant, which is awesome, is there an easy way to display it on the teams list? I think that would be nifty.

3. I know I'm wishing for the stars, but there aren't any plans to be able to add player stats tracking to this system is there? It would be great if we could not only track the wins and losses of the teams but also track the kills, deaths, assists, flags, points, etc. of every player. If you don't think it would be very difficult to set up, I could even try to create the mod myself if you could point me in the right direction.

4. So you can create teams, and players can join that team.....I don't think there is currently a way to associate teams, as well as players that are on a team, with a usergroup security policy is there? For example, a user creates a team, and vb automatically puts them into a 'team leader' usergroup without any admin interaction, and then if some other players join that team they automatically get upgraded to a 'team member' usergroup?

Anyways, these are just ideas, I really love your mod it has come a long way. :up: :up:

It appears the team leaders/admins put in a score, say 4 points for team a beats 1 point for team b. Team a moves on. If it's the last pairing, then team a is the winner. I haven't gotten enough players to help me test it out yet, seems pretty simple though.

Is there a way to remove teams from brackets, or replace them with another team once the bracket is produced?

We hvae a team that isn't able to play and one to take it's place, but i cannot figure out how to do this.

What you should do is add a thing for entry fees on w/e tournament you decide to have a entry fee on, you should also make a ladder system, basically challenge another team or player to a match and if they accept then it adds it and they play and report the scores.

I would so use it if it at least added a entry fee thing or maybe the ladder setup I described

Doesn't it already have that ladder system? Teams can challenge each other to matches, then accept, the game is put in, and I think the teams can even input their scores and the higher score wins.

I was having a problem with the "PM me the Details" link, under the Tournament Tools, drop down. I was getting the error "Please complete both the subject and message fields." To fix, make the following easy change to "tournaments.php"

change on line 216:
Code:
eval('$message = "' . fetch_template('tmnt_template') . '";');
to read:
Code:
eval('$message = "' . fetch_template('tmnt_threadtemplate') . '";');
:up:
