Subject: Tournament page

Why doesn't a tournament show the score of the match instead of a useless dash?

Thad: It's not useless - it tells you the match is not finished ;-)

Thad: That could also prove a bit tricky. You'd need something extra to tell the difference between a completed match (shown as 1-0) and a match that currently stands at a score of 1-0. A cute solution might involve current match scores being shown on "mouse-over" of each dash or of each table cell. (But at this point, I'm hesitant to suggest adding much more HTML code to our pages!

wetware: Put the match score in (parentheses) or [brackets] and/or in a different color. IT could also be in a different size font.
