Tournament formats
Tourney Master 3 supports five tournament systems. Create events for Single

tournament system has considerable quantity of parameters. For Single Elimination
event you can plan games for 3rd and 4th places. For Double Elimination event
you can indicate whether the loser's bracket champion must beat winner's bracket

Detailed round settings
All events are divided into rounds. Set particular settings for each round:
maximal number of games in each series of the round and the way the winner of
series is determined. Tourney Master 3 supports three types of winner determination:
by number of games won, by number of game points and by total games score. In
the first case you can set "Best of X" series, for instance, "Best
of 1", "Best of 3" etc. In the second case you can set how many
game points each participant receives after each game, depending on game's outcome,
the winner is the participant with most points. In these two cases the winner
can be determined even if not all games have been played; the program will automatically
determine the winner and mark all unnecessary games as "Cancelled".
In the third case the winner of series is the participant with the most total
score (e.g. with the most total goals), thus all games in series must be played.

Advanced scheduling
Tourney Master 3 automatically generates optimal and conflictless schedule.
Just add dates, times and location availability and the program will take care
of the rest. If you have several locations available on the same dates you can
setup schedule slots for all these locations with one click. You can setup when
and how often each location is available (every day / week / weekend / workday
/ month). Tourney Master 3 handles rain dates and other delays. You can easily
cancel and reschedule a game or reuse its time slot by another game. Furthermore
you can create the schedule manually in semi-automatic mode.

Easy tournament management
During the tournament you need to view, edit or delete game results and do
it fast and correctly. Tourney Master 3 provides three types of user interface
for tournament management: the tournament bracket view, the series/games view
and the schedule management view. You can use each one as the case may be.
The tournament bracket view provides information about how participants are
progressing in the event. In this section you can also replace participants,
and do it even when the tournament is already running on.
The series/games view provides information about games and series of games.
You can sort and filter them by round, date/time, location etc. This section
is useful when it is necessary to view and edit series and games which are about
to begin, games of the specific round and so on.
The schedule management view provides specific information: when and where
games are to be played. In this section you can view and edit various time and
location related information, sort and filter games by status, date, location
as well as keep track of location usage. This section also provides means of
manual scheduling; you can reschedule games, set their date, time and playing
locations manually.

Automated seeding
Optionally enter seed numbers for participants and automatically seed brackets
using Advantage, Random and Random by Groups seeding methods. You can also manually
seed teams. Advantage seeding method places top seeded participants as far as
possible from each other. Random seeding method fills the bracket randomly.
Random by Groups method fills the bracket randomly, but participants from the
same group are seeded as far as possible from each other - you can use this
seeding method is you run a tournament amongst several clubs or cities, and
you don't want participants to play against their teammates or neighbors in
first rounds.

Winners automatically advance
Tourney Master 3 allows you to set the next event, where winners of the previous
one will advance. You can also select the specific round which survivors will
advance. Advancement parameters can be set for any event with any tournament
system. So you can create various tournament stages, e.g. pool and play-off
and more.

and locations. Our software is powerful enough to handle huge tournaments with
1000-2000 and more participants. Using the well thought-out interface you can

Printing and exporting to the Web
All tournament brackets, charts and reports you create during the tournament
can be printed on the paper or exported to the Web-format (HTML). The program
can print simple and wallboard size tournament brackets on the paper of any
size. When you export a tournament bracket to the Web-format (HTML) the program
optimizes it, so even a large bracket consumes much less disk space than it
would.

Bracket and report skins
Select visual appearance for charts, brackets and reports you create with our
software. Tourney Master 3 provides about a dozen of skins, so you can select
the one you like. New skins can be created with the Skin Editor.

Standings
Tourney Master 3 generates standings for each event. Standings are generated
in real time and always up to date. Standings display information about participant's
rank and can be generated even for elimination events. For pool play and round
robin events standings display each participant's rank with all tie-breakers
used. For elimination events standings display an approximate place each participant
took - first three or more (for double elimination events) places are specified
precisely, but for other participants their place is displayed as "Top X", e.g.
"Top 8", "Top 16", "Top 32" etc.
