Introducing the schedule functionnality

Let’s start the week with a new feature on Toornament: Schedules!

This new tool allows you to create schedules with various purposes. Schedules can be set as public or private.

Here are some examples of public schedules:

Opening and closing hours
Extra activities (autograph signings, special events)
Main stage schedule

And some examples of private schedules:

Admins time of arrival on site
Match process (when to go get the players, set-up the machines etc.)
Admins meeting

To
create a schedule, just go to the “Schedule” in your dashboard. From
there, you can create and edit pretty much everything you need. The
public schedules will be visible in the tournament widget.

You can now start to test and use them, feel free to send us your feedbacks!

You can now add custom fields for participants

Toornament allows you to add any number of Custom Fields to your participants, would they be individuals or teams (and you can then apply custom fields to the whole team, or to each member).
You can find this feature in the Organizer Dashboard, under the “Settings” -> “Participants” menu, in the “Team/Player Custom Fields” tab(s).

Here’s the new Toornament TV

Our public display and in-between match content solution has been updated !

This new version embeds a live info strip, based on a Twitter feed and hashtag. Toornament TV is also customisable through its main elements :

Background picture
Main layout picture
Border color (CSS)
Text color

You can check it Live on this page.

The ESWC CoD 2015 starting this week end will be the first tournament to use the new Toornament TV.
Toornament TV is still underwork and thus, not directly available from your dashboard. If you’re interested, feel free to contact us !

Introducing the Bracket Groups

So, what is a bracket groups ? As it names hints, it’s a group stage working as an elimination bracket (double or simple).
Bracket Groups structure brings a whole different pace to a group stage as each match becomes crucial.

Light theme !

Here are today’s new features, one invisible and other much more visible.

First, we’ve had our server maintenance process and internal changes, enhancing Toornament’s global performances and responsiveness.

Second, we’ve added a new color for our widget : Light. This white, clean look will make our widget a perfect embedabble content for more sites using white backgrounds and clear color schemes.

You just have to pick it from the “Share” tab in your dashboard. Here’s one in the flesh :

A full black theme is also on the way.

Meanwhile, other features and improvement are on the way, just let us know what you’d like to see !
