Legacy Tournaments

hy guys

this is my first post on your forums, great products and a big thanks for you lite mods. so after installing vBArcade lite on my local host, i saw a feature to be missing that i think is very important. that is to include torunament ladders for a prticular game score etc. a particular no.of members can be selected on the basis of first come, first serve to participate in competition and prizes could be set like rep points, awards and trophies etc.. so what do you guys say about it?

I am just about ready to begin the closed beta, and am kinda desperately looking for more people who would be interested

Check out this screenshot! It is what is actually rendered by the system from the working tournament system



This is the contents of the Tournament tab on the game playing page, when viewing a tournament.
This is a knockout tournament. I'll show you a group mode tournament in a bit, youll see its using the spacing version, it also highlights the match you are in - or the champion match if it is over. The winning scores are bolded.

Note that the if someone forfeits (manually or timeout) then their opponent advances, even if they also forfeit (manually or timeout). Similarly, if both people in a match get a tied score, the first person to get that score will advance - there are no ties allowed. Also, if both people havent locked in their scores for a match yet, and you have scores hidden enabled, then it will hide the scores that arent yours until the match is decided.

The italic sentence at the top tells you your personal status with the tournament, whether you are a spectator, your participation is over (you lost or tournament is over), or a countdown timer saying how long you have to finish your attempts, with a link to forfeit/lock in early. The second line is just the title of the tournament and the description.

Wow..So clicking on the tournament tab within any game will show the current tournament standings for that game only.
