Allow voting for each match in a challonge
Allow Challonge users to vote once per match in tournaments and display the current vote counts. The organizer would then be able to advance players based on # of votes.
This would be useful for tournaments that don't involve actual physical competition (best beer tournament, celebrity tournaments, etc.)
7 votesMore voting stats to be added soon, but this has been available for a few weeks. Might add voting by text message as well (paid feature)
-
Additional round robin ranking options
Allow sorting by match wins (current), number of games won, and total points in games.

Numbering individual Swiss matches
As a tournament organizer for local CCG tourneys, we've been looking for something a bit more reliable and came across Challonge. After running our tournament using your website, everything worked perfectly but the issue is this:
Is there any way to number the match-ups in the round? This becomes pretty important when most of the people are out of town and have no idea who they're sitting across from (i.e. each match is assigned a 'table')
6 votesPruning our feature request forum and found this. A while back, we started labeling all matches in Challonge with letters, so that should take care of this. Thanks!

Soccer/Football Points system
Dear Challonge
It is a pleasure to contact you as a very happy recent starter of your Challonge system. I just wanted to pass on my thanks as I have used it to Admin 2 very large recent LANs in the UK (ECL and i40) for FIFA 10 tournaments.
You can see an example of how I have integrated the system in with our site @ http://www.sweetpatch.tv/index.cfm?articleid=6327 and http://www.sweetpatch.tv/index.cfm?articleid=6422
The success of these events resulted in a number of colleagues contacting me about the system we used as they wanted to start using it.
One question/request is that as we…

Permissions improvement
Let people inserted as Admin in the "Share admin access to this tournament" option finally able to start and finish the tournament!
It's sad that if I create the tour but I'm not at home in the date fixed, I have to tell my password to people in order not to restart/redo the whole bracket thing.

Edit player names who have registered
It's kind of annoying as a tourney admin when someone with a challonge account no-shows and I can't edit their name on my brackets. I often have back-ups waiting to play and when they have to replace a no-show who has registered on the site their name cannot be added to the bracket in that person's place. It would be really helpful if this was changed.
4 votesadmins can now sub new people in for registered participants after challonges are published (including after they’re started)

Add the ability to set sign up limit
Currently the limit is forced to be 256 max, would like the ability to force sign ups to be fewer (128, 64, etc)

Let me view/edit bracket outside of scroll box. It is currently cumbersome to view whole bracket.
It is very difficult to get a good idea of the whole bracket in the view/edit window because the view is needlessly limited to a small box within the browser view that I have to scroll. I have a big monitor and could probably see a whole 64-person DE bracket within a window, but the scrollbox limits me to a very small viewable area of the window.
3 votesThis feature will be deployed tomorrow morning. My brand new monitor may have helped bump this one’s priority :-)
-
Move the advertisements to a less predominant portion of the pages.
For example the advertising banner is on the page above the bracket view. I am sure you could find a better way to get that advertising in without getting in the way of such an important feature.
I love your guys work BTW.

Allow players to re-enter their match scores
Sometimes players make errors when entering their match scores, and thus need to edit the results. Currently, they must contact an administrator to edit the scores. This can be slightly inconvenient for both parties, and it would be nice if players could make these edits on their own.
For security purposes, perhaps a player can make any edits to the match results initially, but once future matches are played, they can't make edits that affect which matches would have been played (e.g. they can't change the winner, just the scores). A notification could also be sent to both players and…

Doubt
Hey man, very nice site!
Is there a way to seed (for example) only the top 8 players in a 32 man tournament (the rest would be seeded randomly)?
hope you can understand what i wrote, english is not my first language ^^
3 votesThanks! Your best bet would be to randomize seeding them drag the top 8 players into the top seeds.

Delete Score and Winner previus asigned
Somtime i put score for WO, ex. 0-1 0-1 0-1 winner player B.
but in the day the player acord play the game another day. and not permit delete he score, and the winner, only permit put 0-0 and TIE result.3 votesI’m not able to reproduce this issue now, so I’m assuming it has been fixed. I made some bug fixes related to score editing a while back, so this was likely handled then.

add MVCI to game list please.
It's been long enough, my ranking site uses your API to pull stats and I have no way to get it to display MVCI...
3 votesDone! Sorry for not verifying that game sooner. Existing tournaments associated with a bunch of variations of the same game are all attached to “Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite” now.

Add Completed Tournaments to Organization
I think organizations would benefit greatly if organizers were given the opportunity to connect completed, previously unconnected tournaments to their organization. As of right now, if an organizer starts a tournament separate from an organization, there is no way to fix this at any point after the creation of the event.
I have hosted multiple tournaments in somewhat of a "series," and for organizational purposes, it would be convenient to have them all grouped in the same organization. The first two of these tournaments are separated because I was not aware of the organization feature at the time (it may…
3 votesHello,
This is already possible. A user who organized a tournament as an individual can change its host to an organization they belong to (from a tournament’s settings page). Note – this will change the tournament’s URL to include the org’s subdomain.
Let us know if we’re missing something or if you have any other questions. Thanks!

Provide JSON Exports of Completed Brackets
It would be sweet if brackets could be exported to JSON. It would provide tournament organizers a quick and convenient way to submit a completed bracket to an automated system for things such as data-mining, season-long record keeping/scoring, etc.
3 votesThis is currently possible with our API. After getting a key from your account settings, you can request JSON or XML for your tournament, including its matches and participants:
API documentation can be found at http://challonge.com/api
Hope this works for you!

Add the dutch language
Me and most of my friends use challonge to create tournament, but the most frequently asked question is: "what does this mean"? thats why i would like to help translate the site to dutch, but there's no option to do this.
3 votesI added Dutch to the list of languages on our translation site, so you can contribute by navigating to challonge.com/translate
Thanks for your help!

Allow picking the winner without score entry
It's not always interesting to track the score of the two competing participants, so being allowed to simply select a winner without entering a score would be useful. If the score boxes are empty don't nag about entering the score but simply use the selected winner.
3 votesThere’s now a bracket option for this: “Quick advance – report winners only, not scores”

Front End UI Match Identifier does not match API Match Identifier
Recently Challonge updated their front end UI and with the bracket matches have been updated to be identified by a number instead of a letter. However the API still returns matches back with the identifier labeled as a letter.
This makes it impossible to identify what match is where in the bracket. And has brought my development to a standstill.
3 votesI just pushed out an update for this. New match records will have a “suggested_play_order” integer value that matches the Challonge front end. I’ll make a note to backfill old match records as well, but it might be a week or so.

Add technical defeat
A checkbox showing that loser didn't actually lose anything, but was disqualified / decided to quit tournament.
2 votesIf this is the case, the tournament admin should remove the player from the tournament – this will result in the player’s name being crossed out in the bracket and auto-forfeited matches.
Easier avenues for contacting the admin and other players are coming soon.
