Support for Critical Hit
It was extremely time consuming but I was able to use Matchplay to run a CH recently so that our Twitch streamer could utilize your app's great metadata. I'd like to eventually see Matchplay get full support for this growing format.
► Allow TDs to make Arena and Player changes before publishing matches
TDs may need to place players in a group before matches are drawn. This happens with cards like Foresight, which allows the player to choose a group before seeing the draw. Alternatively, allow the TD to make changes to players/groups after the draw w/o publishing the match.…
7 votesIt is now possible to make changes to groups (change players, modify player order, change arena etc.) before a round is published.
I have folded the second suggestion around a faster refresh rate into the “Revamp big screen / projector view” suggestion.

Display all player points adjustments in a location accessible to players and scorekeepers
Ideally all TDs will be trustworthy and transparent, but mistakes can be made when things get busy. Manual points adjustments should be visible to other users in some way for verification.
1 voteGood idea! The points adjustments can now be seen on the “players” tab (click “info” and then “players”) for the tournament.
Example: https://matchplay.events/live/qnb6n/players (though this tournament doesn’t actually have any adjustments!)

Inverse the Line Chart showing Position
Right now the line chart for rank has it so that the closer to the bottom you are, the better, since being ranked #1 puts you close to the X-Axis.
Multiplying Rank *-1 would inverse the graph, meaning that if you're higher on the graph, you're doing better.

Fix te standings "bug" in progressive strikes tournaments.
Because it's confusing now.
2 votesThe totally random standings for progressive strikes tournaments are all fixed!
-
Baseball strikes format
27 outs.
1st - zero strikes
2nd - one strike
3rd - 2 strikes
4th - 3 strikes27 strikes you're out.
7 votesThis is now complete. You can now choose “progressive strikes” as an option when creating a group knockout tournament (it’s under “number of strikes in four-player groups”).

Message field for Organizers to deliver information to players
This would be a Message that would possibly live on the standings page and be totally obvious when loading whatever page its on (I am thinking of this for selfie leagues specifically) That would relay info to players (Finals start a 2PM on Sunday) (Players XYZ who have byes can show up at 4PM)
3 votesClosing this since there’s a description field the organizer can use for this purpose. It’s displayed on the “Info” page for the tournament.

Add Challenge Matches (quick head-to-head match-ups)
Easily challenge another player to a best-of-X challenge. Match Play would let you send a challenge to a another player. That person would accept the challenge and Match Play would walk you through the challenge game by game.
Results would be stored for each individual game and you'd be able to get an overview of results over time along with any other stats that can be thought up.

Let TDs add/remove players from groups at will and create new groups at will
Would be neat if TDs could:
- Add remove players from groups at will (e.g. to add a late player or remove a player that left during a round)
- Create new groups from scratch (e.g. if many players show up late)
15 votesI have completed the first and most important portion. It’s now possible to modify players in groups.
Click the “cog” icon for a group and pick “Modify players”. Here are you swap out players in the group with other players.
I’ve placed the second porion about creating/removing entire groups in a new idea posted here: https://matchplay.uservoice.com/forums/595996-general/suggestions/20503975-let-tds-create-and-remove-groups-at-will

Let TD edit playoffs configuration ahead of time
In tournaments where "Create playoffs" is used, it would be helpful to be able to set up the proper "tournament details" before the tournament starts.
Currently, it's easy to click "Create playoffs", Create finals bracket, and start playoffs without viewing or confirming that the details are correct.

Allow TDs to add people to round 1 that arrive late
Currently if someone arrives late but before things are fully "running" we add them to the event as a player. . . We have to tell them where to go play but cannot add them to the round without deleting the entire round.
As a result, we're forced to tell them where to go play, manually adjust a scores for up to 4 people depending on the format we're using (and how it affects other people scores), and then they still don't appear in the standings until the end of the second round (because the app thinks they haven't played…
8 votesThe “Modify players” dialog box now lets you add or remove players from any game with some caveats:
- You cannot add/remove players if the game is already completed. You must delete results first in that case. You can still replace players in a completed game
- In a head-to-head tournament, you must always have two players (so you cannot add/remove players there)
- In a group tournament, you must always have three or four players
Despite these limitations this is still useful in group tournaments where you can now add late players to existing groups or remove late players from existing groups (provided it’s not a three-player group).
You still cannot do much with the bye game. I will tackle that as part of: https://matchplay.uservoice.com/forums/595996-general/suggestions/32263480-allow-an-option-to-adjust-byes

"Create Playoffs" for 4 players
I have a request regarding the "create playoffs" feature...
Here is the event where it was needed
https://matchplay.events/app/tournaments/8717We're running this format as a weekly where the top 4 make finals to play a three game round, but the current options only allow for 8, 16 or 32 player brackets. Would it be possible to give the option for 4 players?

Make IFPA results numerically line up with IFPA requirements
Make IFPA submission results numerically line up with the required IFPA format.
Currently matchplay would rank three people tied for 5th as 5th place but should be 6th for sumbissions

Allow API to return player information for rounds in progress
For rounds in progress, the API currently does not return any information about the players or player order assigned to an arena.
For example:
https://matchplay.events/api-beta/tournaments/8988/resultsreturns
"gameid":212849,"arenaid":15260,"bank_id":null,"status":"started","results":[]}
There is no player info for the arenas in progress, even though the players are shown on the normal Match Play page:
https://matchplay.events/app/tournaments/8988The players appear when the results of the round are entered. However, it'd be nice to get the players on an arena while it's in progress.
My use case is to use the API to easily display the current players on a Twitch stream.

Allow the API to access info for test tournaments
Currently, if you mark a tournament as a "test tournament", the API is unable to retrieve info about that tournament, e.g.:
https://matchplay.events/api-beta/tournaments/76wb
returns a 404 instead of the info. Unchecking the "test tournament" option allows the data to be retrieved. Test tournaments would be very helpful for playing around with the Match Play API.

New tournament format: Ladder tournaments
The tournament format used in the PAPA Circuit final:
"At the start of the third round, the remaining 10 players will be placed in a ladder-style bracket based on their original seeds. The bottom 4 players will compete in a single game, with the lowest scoring player being removed from the contest and replaced by the next highest seed. When only 2 players remain, they will compete in a best two-games-out-of-three series to determine the Circuit Champion and decide who takes home the PAPA Circuit Belt!"
10 votesLadder Bracket have been added as a new tournament format in Match Play. More details here: http://tiltforums.com/t/match-play-events-open-thread/958/665

Display more tournament data to assist with IFPA submissions
- Number of games played for each player (with participation percentage)
- PGM calculations for Pingolf tournaments
- Add more in comments!
9 votesI’ve added PGM and TGP numbers for Pingolf tournaments.
- For regular pingolf tournaments you’ll find a “PGM” tab on the “Scorecards” page on Match Play Live. Use the dropdown to only calculate PGM for the number of players you’re advancing to finals. Example: https://matchplay.events/live/eb2n2/pgm
- For pingolf elimination brackets you’ll find PGM & TGP values for each round on the “Matches” page on Match Play Live. Look on the right hand side at the bottom of each round: Example: https://matchplay.events/live/ebe50/matches

Make it possible to merge players
If you have created duplicate players by accident it would be nice to be able to merge them together to avoid adding the wrong player to new tournaments.
9 votesYou can now merge players. The one caveat is that the two players can’t have played in the same tournament (because you risk getting into a situation where a player is playing against the same player).
Don’t stress the details, MP will give you an audit of that’s going to happen before the merge goes through. To start merging players go to the global “Players” page and choose the “Merge players” sub tab

Change notifications so arena is first
As a player, when I receive a notification for a new game via Slack, the truncated message that appears on my phone's lock screen includes the first few players, but I have to open the Slack application to get the full message with the arena listed last. If the arena were first, I would know which machine to head to without extra clicks (knowing all the players is secondary).

Allow knockout format to be used for finals (Support for crit hit)
Allow the ability to have a finals format of Knock out. This would allow the ability to run Critical hit within a single tournament instead of having to use multiple ones. (One for matchplay and 1 for knockout finals)
0 votesThis is already possible. After you create the finals tournament but before you start it, click “edit tournament details” and change the finals tournament format to a knockout tournament.

Add a Date Column on the My tournaments Screen
When looking for the results of monthly reoccurring tournaments with the same name, it is often difficult to find the one you're looking for. This is especially true when TDs clone one but fail to change the date.
Please consider adding a Date column to easily find a specific tournament.
