Tournaments FAQ

[Janabis]

Bonjour, je vois que le nombre d'invitation à un tournoi est limité ... mais je ne vois nulle part où & comment fonctionne cette limitation.
A combien est-elle limitée, combien de temps, ... ? Quel est le fonctionnement de cette limitation ? ... Merci.

Where can i find this competition/tournaments??

Go to the "Play Now" page. In the left column select "Tournaments" (by default "Simple Game" is selected). It should be simple from there.

I created a Swiss System tournament, with a default of 5 players per match, minimum 3 players per match. There were 81 entrants. I'd have expected each round of the tournament to comprise either:

14 tables of 5, 2 tables of 4, 1 table of 3 (70 + 8 + 3 = 81), or

15 tables of 5, 2 tables of 3 (75 + 6 = 81).

But instead, Step 1 of the tournament comprises

8 tables of 5, 8 tables of 4, 3 tables of 3 (40 + 32 + 9 = 81).

I'm not complaining, just curious: what is the formula for deciding how many 5-player tables there will be, in a case like this? Why did the server set only 8 tables with a "full" complement of 5 players, when it could have set 14 or 15 tables of 5?

I posted a bug report about this 15 months ago. https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=49340
No response and no one has upvoted it because the topic involves words that are too generic (can't search the bugs for words like "tournament" or "player"). I'd appreciate an upvote, but more than that, I'd appreciate an admin/coder actually addressing the issue.

I created a tournament for expert and masters (starting monday 20th, 12.00)

There is a player with elo 100 registered. https://boardgamearena.com/player?id=85322963

It seems that he had more points but BGA brought him back to 100 for bad sportmanship.

How can I (or you) expel him ?

What did happen in https://boardgamearena.com/tournament?id=70281? Can you cancel this tournament?

I had to withdraw from the tournament because I was annoyed by the message in the bar at the top that I had games to play.

Hello!
Tournament invitations are limited to 50 per day.
When it resets? After 24 hours from the last invitation I sent? Or at a certain time of the day?
Does this only apply to invitations? Can players avoid this limitation by using invitation link?

Hi!

I have a question... Is it possible to create a tournament with groups and half elimination 2nd round. But Can I edit de date of the round robin stage? I see only 5 matches to edit date, but I don't know if they are for the first stage, or for the final round.

Thanks!!
