A few more tournament fixes / changes:
You have the same amount of time to join a game as the boot time, if this is exceeded you are booted from the game (but not the tournament). We'll monitor how this works in practice.

Should work now.

Vacations are honored right?

- Updated tournament icon in game list
I love it!
Didn't we have a Setting to play multiple rounds at once for Round Robin? I can't seem to find that now, and would speed tournaments up quite a bit wouldn't it?
The Games tab on this tournament http://www.wargear.net/tournaments/view/11 has the white box for all player 2 positions as if I am in all those games.
Also why do I have a side scroll bar for that page, it's not necessary.
In that same tournament, we all have a score of 10,000 on the Leaderboard tab, is that how Round Robin works or why is it 10,000?
Vacations: Yep, honored exactly the same as currently (same code is used)
10,000 score: This is your initial tournament score (same as 1,000 is your initial regular ranking score). It't 10x to provide better separation of players with a small set of games played
Scrollbar - can you email me a screenshot? Shouldn't be one
Multiple rounds - I haven't enabled this yet although the code is there. Need to do some more testing first
White boxes - will take a look at fixing that.
So the 10,000 score is per tournament, but the overall Tournament system uses 1,000?
This tournament http://www.wargear.net/tournaments/view/5 (still Open) shows 1,000. While the default tournament page http://www.wargear.net/tournaments/default shows the Top Tournament Players based off of 1,000.
Going to the Tournament page Not Logged In shows all Tournaments, even Private ones I believe.
I've only played one tournament game, but my Stats say I've played 2 and Player's Played/Eliminated are wacky as well.

Way to navigate to the Tournament page directly from a game?
Like I'm looking at http://www.wargear.net/games/view/16246 and I can't see any way to go view tourney details other than through the Tourney tab outside the game.
Maybe I should just combine these threads: http://www.wargear.net/forum/showthread/715/First_tournament_suggestion_after_Live!

Now I've finished 2 games, but it shows 4, I believe this is also affecting the Tournament Ranking calculation because I shouldn't be at 1074, should be closer to the 1037ish mark I believe.
Possibly related to tournaments, but the Board Rankings tab of a Player Profile (http://www.wargear.net/players/info/Yertle/Board%20Rankings) is sorted by recently played correct? Is that recently played Ranked game or recently played Private/Tournament/Public game? As mine now shows GearWars at the top (although no stats have changed) due to playing in the GearWars Tournament.
Arggghhh Yertle on a rampage
Round Robin: In this format each player or team plays every other player or team once. It is limited to two player or two team games only. The winner is the player or team with the most wins at the end of the tournament. Rounds are pre-defined at tournament start so you can start playing a new round even when other players haven't finished their round.
So this is whoever wins the most games and not by Ranking correct? If there is a tie for most wins does it then go by Ranking?
Correct, the tournament score is there to separate winners from losers when they tie on points. It's going to be used a lot to separate winners from losers in Swiss tournaments. Game 1 in the final round effectively becomes the final where either someone ends up with a 100% record or x players have the same number of wins and one loss.
The 1000 is a display issue which will be fixed for new tournaments.
I fixed the problem with the logged out tournaments view.
Not sure what's going on with the doubled up wins, will have to take a longer look at that!
I would assume it would go by the head 2 head match up since they played each other.
Speaking of Round Robin, what happens if there is a boot? Does that player just lose that game and then move on to another game or is he/she booted from the tournament and everyone gets a bye against him/her?
If there's a boot it just applies to that game, not the whole tournament. Only if you Quit the tournament do you get byes in the remaining games.
re: the win record vs the other person - that doesn't always work for a 3 way tie for example.
