    Sorted. New software installed and officially "on test". Until it's declared OK, only I can create tournaments. There are a few to choose from already, but I'm testing the notification options amongst other things so I don't want 20 or 30 running at the same time yet.

    Feel free to enter the one's I put up.

    Let me know of any issues too, thanks.

    Question about tournaments, do you get three chances in every game to secure a high score??

    Depends on the options chosen when tournaments are created. For example in the deal or no deal tournament I chose to have only 1 play per round, but could have set it up to 5 tries.

    May be another bug then, as I submitted my second go in that tournament.

    I've been reliably informed by the arcade software creator that what appear to be bugs in the layout of the knockout table correct themselves when all the games are played. We shall have to wait and see!

    can't be true if you look at the cricket one.

    I beat Hornmeister first round.

    Yet he got put through to the next round as did I, yet I never played a second round match but am eliminated.

    I agree that one does look bad. I'm waiting to see what happens when either the other players make their scores, or they get automatically eliminated. Watch out for a PM from the game, please let me know if you receive anything from the cricket whatsoever.

    Default 2 day timeout.

    Think that a timeout after 2 days is a bit harsh. You could wait a week for the tourney to fill up and next time you check are already eliminated. Also there appears to be a bug/quirk that if you do not use all of the attempts alloted to you, even if you have the highest score and the 2 day limit times out, you lose.:(

    Would suggest a week timeout or a PM to inform that a disqualification is imminent, if at all possible.

    Yours, Robbed of a Sanke tournament win, Hornmeister.

    is the problem Hornmeister

    In both the cricket and the deal or no deal game it all looks Ok until you get to his part of the draw!

    just wonder if he has a bug in him

    Very interesting. Hornmeister is the bug? All other tournys OK so far!

    The thing about disqualification is that when the torunament is full you get a PM stating the fact. You then get another one with 1 day before you're disqualified telling you that it's about to happen. I think 1 and 2 days is OK.
