WHAT'S NEW IN TOURNAMENT PLUS 2.05?

  • Freestyle type Bout Slips can be printed as an option by selecting “Use Freestyle Bout Slips” in the Setup Options screen.
  • Certain reports can now be saved as Adobe Acrobat *.pdf files.  These reports include

Final Bracket Sheets
Final Results of each medal match
Final Team Standings (Scores)

This allows easy transfer of these reports by email, to a website or to save to disk.  Bracket sheets viewed from the Final Bracket Sheets *.pdf file can be individually printed and retain all the features of the sheets printed directly from Tournament Plus.  This feature is accessed from the menu bar at Reports - Output Results to Disk.

In order to use this feature, two files are copied to your hard drive in the Tournament Plus installation directory.  These files are “dynapdf.dll” and “StrStorage.dll”.

  • You can now print a single bout slip directly from the Bracket Sheet screen.  Simply right-click with your mouse on the bout number.  This will open a pop-up menu allowing you to select “Print this Bout Slip”.

 

  • An option to run 8-person brackets with single elimination in both the first and second rounds has been added.  This was previously available for 16 and 32-person brackets.  This option essentially makes an 8-person bracket a single elimination bracket with the losers of the Championship Semi Finals wrestling for 3rd place.  This option can be chosen from the individual bracket sheet screens.
  • Added the ability to print Weigh-In / Registration Cards on printers that will only handle smaller paper sizes by centering them in the paper tray.  This is selected in the menu bar under Tools.
  • A new report, "Most Pins - Least Time”, has been added to the menu bar under Scoring

  • Added another Match Numbering option that allows numbering matches sequentially with all brackets starting at the same time (first round).  While this can complicate the process of keeping up with rounds and printing out bracket sheets and bout slip, it will have all smaller brackets finishing much sooner.  Other options have all finals matches finishing in the same round or all round robin matches starting later in the tournament so they are not spread out over the entire day.
  • A new Seeding Table has been added that will allow you to seed any number of wrestlers in a bracket.  It can also be used to help separate wrestlers from the same team.  It still requires that the wrestlers be entered in the Registration table, but does have a lot of flexibility.  You can choose between randomly assigning byes or assigning them to the top seeds.

 

  • An option has been added to double elimination brackets to allow you to change the name and team of the wrestler that has been brought into the Consolation side following a loss in the Championship side.  The cross-bracketing is consistent with standard bracketing practices, but sometimes you get either two wrestlers from the same team or two wrestlers who have met already and you would like to change the order that they were brought down.  To do this, you can right click with the mouse on the name of the wrestler brought down to the Consolation side.  A small pop-up menu will appear.  Click on “Change the Wrestler in This Match”.

When prompted, type in the name and the team for the wrestler you want in this spot.  Do the same thing in the second corresponding spot to swap the two wrestlers.  This action will also automatically check the box at the top of the screen to “Cancel Auto Update” for this bracket only.  If Auto Update is allowed, the program will attempt to place the wrestlers in the original, as bracketed positions.
