This is fixed now.

Hi,

after the Swiss System and Multiplayer Elimination mode for tournaments, we're happy to introduce the "Group Stage" mode !

As the name implies, this mode has two stages :

• The first stage, where players are put into groups
• The final stage, where winners from each groups are competing

This mode is in Alpha, and in need of testers.

Here are some alpha-mode tournament to give you a hint on how they look like : list

This time we'd like you to create these tournaments in alpha mode.

This mode is slightly more complicated than others, as it will require more configuration.
It can work for games with more than 2 players, depending on the mode you set for each stage.

Please post an answer if you are interested in creating such a tournament, I'll give to some of the volunteers a special link with the ability to access the alpha mode.

Thanks for your interest !

Oh, tournament creation is only for premium accounts indeed.
