Display the number of games currently played in the Round Robin sumamry grid
The summary info of matches/games/points/etc is really helpful at the bottom of the Round Robin results screen. However, it's much less meaningful when you can't see a quick how many games have been played or are left for a particular player/team.
30 votesdone! definitely useful info for RRs. thanks for the input.

Fix Swiss system (bye issue)
At this moment, if you run a Swiss style tournament with odd number of players, seeding is completely broken. The whole idea of Swiss system is to pair the players according to points. At this moment, system pairs is not using this rule, but probably games won - major flaw - it's not including points for "byes". Look at my tournament:
After first round I had 4 players with 2 pts - the system paired two of them with players that lost their games. After second round I have two platers with 4 pts and they are not paired…

Report Scores Tab - Seperated Round Lists
Report Scores tab is a very nice way to manage who hasn't competed. However, I want to complete all of Round 1 before starting Round 2, and Report Scores combines all rounds into one list. Could we separate all Rounds and even Loser Bracket rounds into individual lists?
22 votesmatches will be separated by round for tournaments published from now on. thanks for the suggestion!

Double Round Robin.
Simple really, why is there no double round robin option? I found another website that has double round robin, but is not like Challonge, and i would rather stay on Challonge, I just like the way it is run, and can be run. The idea is so participants play each other at least twice, instead of once. It would be more interesting for madden brackets.
19 votesForgot to update this feature request until now (sorry!), but this has been available since July 12th.

Ability to remove the winner from a match after it has been entered.
Have updated scores in real time, but selected a winner of the match by accident. Cannot remove the winner so that the bracket reverts as if the match hadn't finished.
15 votesSorry for not updating here! This was implemented a few weeks ago. The organizer can hover a match and select “Reopen.”

An API to add players, create tournaments, update results without using the website.
I'd be a great if I could interface with Challonge from something other than the site. In particular, I want to make a bot for an IRC channel that handles tournaments that just uses an API to send Challonge info (and then I'd link the generated bracket).

Guest book
A way for users in a tournament to chat with each other.
Just a simple message board/guest book in public for tracking each other for losses or even planning of meetings.Personally we use facebook for this, but it would be great with a function like that on the site as well!
15 votes“Host a basic forum for this tournament” was added to the general tournament options. Enjoy!

Enter a score without selecting winner "Live Score"
Enter the score without selecting a winner, so therefore it would be a live score.
For example if the winner is first to 5, I would like the ability to be able to show an update when thee game is 3-212 votesThanks for the suggestion – this is now supported! When scores are reported without a winner selected, you’ll still need to OK the alert message that pops up, but then the scores will show up on the bracket for everyone to see.

Make round robin tournaments with more than 30 participants
To whoever needs to host big tournaments
12 votesRound robin limit increased to 40. We won’t provide live images for RRs larger than 30, however. This limit will be increased further once some optimizations are made.

i want to be able to update quarter scores until the match is complete (4 games), but it won't let me not pick a winner
12 votesYou can now save scores without selecting a winner, though the bracket won’t show results until a winner is selected.

Make Swiss points system available for Round Robin tournament
RR really misses option to set a point system, like 3 pts for a win, 1 pts for a tie (and sorting table by this parameter, of course). Now the only way to make this is submit every win as 3-0 (or [whatever win cost is] - 0) and every tie as 1-1 + sorting by points, but it's kinda weird.
12 votesAdded “Custom (Swiss points system)” option to Round Robins.

Better Mobile Control and Access
I've been using your site for tournament for a while and I really appreciate your participation in my last major tournament that I threw by sending us that T-Shirt. I took a pic of the winner with your shirt too and will send you a copy when I get the chance.
I just wrapped up another tourney 45% via my Evo, however had difficulty entering the winners when getting to the losers brackets because couldn't scroll down and the pop up box to enter winners didn't show up in an ideal location. Hopefully, you guys will get the mobile version…

Currently, if you start a Round-Robin tournament with custom scoring system, the table will only show match W-L-T and Score. The game-set won doesn't add anything differently than match Won! What would seperate the people who have the same score is total points scored in games - which the table doesn't show in custom points mode (but shows in total-point-score in game mode). Should be an easy fix!
In short, add Total-Points-Score-In-Game to the table in Custom Points mode in Round-Robin tournament.
9 votesSorry, forgot to update this feature request. A column for total points scored was added a while back.
