Tourney.cc 3.0 finally online written by Uz, 2009-07-13 10:04 CEST

You've probably noticed already that everything around the tourney sites has changed. The full tourney.cc rewrite is finally done and online.

New features include:

• Setting the date and time for when to open/close the sign-up phase
• Double Elimination can be limited to only a couple rounds
• New settings for the group stages
• daily pageview statistics for tourneys

Aside from these new additions most of the old features were improved dramatically. The areas that changed the most are:

• viewing brackets and entering results
• the automatic rankings
• private messaging
• more control over season management
• customizing sites

There are still a number of features and improvements planned for the future. These include embedding tournament sites in your own website and a custom css editor. Both of which are already available, but if you want to use them, you'll have to contact me for now.

There are also a couple of changes that I might revert if there's general consent that it was better before. Most notably, team captains can no longer add members directly. So all new team members must register and enter the team's password to join it.

So, let me know what you think about these things and the update in general.
