Pioneer54: My thoughts

1. This would be great if it would not put too much strain on the server. Maybe once a day when the server is the least busy, have a script run through current tournaments to see if it can be determined if there is a winner for each section - and start next round if so.

2. This can be a good idea, but at the same time - many players don't understand the points & S-B in a tournament and may not be able to determin if they are out or not. (Then what will happen if a pawn "removes" themself from a tournament, but then to find out he would have won?) Maybe just a change in the restriction would be beter then worring about this.

3. I could see 2 options for panws. (A) Let pawns enter as many tournaments as they want as long as they do not go over 20 game limit. or (B) Make it so they can only start a new tournament once a month - so at the 1st of the month they can enter a new tournament even if the first one is not done... and they are still under their 20 game limit.

I would also like to see the restriction of 1 of each game type of tournaments for knights removed also. For players who play MANY different types of games, this restriction does nothing. But for someone who only plays chess, well this could be a killer. Just having the 50 game limit seems like enough.

4. I would also like to add that it would be nice if a check could be put into place when a pawn/knight enter a tournament to see if they have room AT THAT TIME - instead of when it starts and then kicks them out. It would not be full proof since one might get in, but then be over the limit by a second round starting elsewhere - but I think it would be helpful.
