Just tried creating first tournament, the XP is 0. FAQ said user-created tournaments include Prestige Points.
What setting am i missing?
I do not think anyone would join a 0 XP tournament. :D

As soon as a certain number of players register there will be an xp bonus

You might want to advertise for your tournament in the forum for that game

Are you sure two days is long enough for a round of this game? Remember that in tournaments there is no increment, so each player only has a total 24 hours FOR THE ENTIRE GAME. And because you have it set with no playing hours they are going to lose around 6-8 hours while they are sleeping. So in reality your players are only going to have 16-18 hours FOR THE ENTIRE GAME, including time when there are working, going to school, etc.

It is always best to be conservative the first time you run a tournament for a game so you can collect data about how long matches actually take.

Tournament XP is based on number of signups. Higher elo people playing increase the xp more, along with the typical game length. It caps at 300xp, which is pretty low considering how hard it is to win a 100+ person tournament.
