also will there be a feature to correct any mistakes, Example, wrong player put forward to the next round as an error.

Can I not just delete him and redo it again?

Great Hack! Nominated for MOTM.

Question regarding Custom Score Type for LMS Tournaments: For the LMS Tourney, ex. A Race determine by best lap time.

Is there a way to set winner to be the person with the fastest time instead of showing the winner who has the highest number?

Not sure if this has already been asked. Thanks for the great hack!

Also on the 1v1, how do you add scores once a match is complete and the player advances to the next round?

Thats all for now. Thanks again!

it enables tournament moderators to add users which don't exist, but i will probably change it

The popup confirmation is meant to stop mistakes but I'll probably add this feature soon

You need to have usergroup permissions to edit tournaments and then you will see [>] next to players name to progress them to next round

Can this be introduced, as it will allow admins to add players to replace exiting players who are unable to play.

I manage lots of online events/competitons, one common problem is that, some players go AWOL, and don't play (go missing) after the event has gone live (first round) when there are lots of other users who want to play but cannot because he/she has taken the slot.



This is a important feature, I believe that will benefit the users and oragnisers.

the option of replacing a player is a good idea by tournament mods, but allowing signups after the tournament has started with 1v1 would problem results in errors

I've added usergroup permissions already and I see [>]. What I'm wondering is the score. How can I add the score of privious match or current match in progress kind of like a tennis tourney?

What happens if a person does not show up or goes inactive or something similar with this? Can the tournament creator give the other person a win automatically?
