Users or teams can join ladders and challenge other players or teams in the ladder. Elo rating system is used which calculates the difficultly of a match according to the players' ranks and this is taken into account when the ranks are updated after the match is finished.

@BananaLive - I wonder if you could tell me if there is a query I could place for how many tournaments (total) and how many teams (total) there are within the tournament section, I'm creating a stat bar and would like it to show how many teams we have and how many tournaments are running (past and present) which will automatically update due to the proper queries being called.
$a = $vbulletin->db->query_first("SELECT COUNT(*) as count FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."tmnt_tmnts");
$count_tournaments = $a['count'];
$b = $vbulletin->db->query_first("SELECT COUNT(*) as count FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."tmnt_teams ");
$count_teams = $b['count'];
Thank you for creating and supporting this mod! I have installed the mod and am trying it out with a beta group of forum members. The main thing that is keeping me from rolling out contests to the community is that we can't find a way for moderators to pick winners for players/teams in single elimination tournies. Right now the system relies on the loser "submitting a loss".
Am I missing something obvious? Do mods have the ability to mark winners and losers? Is this an available premium feature (I would go premium if this is the case). Thank you!

Is there not a progress button on your tournament bracket? Next to each members name you should have an arrow to progress them to the next round.
Also make sure that the group has been given the correct permissions in usergroups.

No, I do not see any arrows next to names. I double checked the Upload files and I do not think any have been missed. Here is what my test tourney looks like:
EDIT: I am also an administrator and have all permissions checked as yes.
EDIT - My best guess is that I missed a file in the upload, or possibly uploaded files incorrectly, although I can't find the error.

Looks like you are missing something mate as mine looks nothing like that. Im sure Bananlive can put you right on that.

That is showing the mobile version of brackets - which version of vbulletin are you using?
Do you know if there is a way to export ladder and tournament data into a gaming ladder script from www.eliteladders.com ?
Members migrate over fine, just no automated way to copy over other data.
Any ideas?
How many competitions are there to transfer? Which part are you keenest to transfer across? I havent used eliteladders before so i'm not really sure how it is structured.
