Hi mogens,
I have contacted the "guy" behind winboard plus and told him about
the necessity of a good tourny system. At first he didnt understand what I meant
by "tourny system", so I had to explain it to him the best way I could with my
worse english. though he didnt write back yet (probably didnt understand me) but
I think he might be interested in this new feature.
How about some more people writing him about it too.
3 makes a crowd......... and probably will influence him..
I have tried the tournament manager by jose (dunno the whole name), but couldnt
get it to work.
thanks
