Reducing the length of a tourney

[EarlPurple]

I was running a tourney and there were loads of connection problems, which led me to increasing the length of the rounds. I wanted to reduce the length of the tournament from 10 boards (5 rounds of 2) to 8 (4 rounds of 2) because I was getting concerned with all the disconnections, and wanted to get the tourney over quicker without abandoning it completely. It was, after all, a free "fun" tourney, so it seemed the best idea.

 

When I tried editing the tournament and modifying the number of boards, I hit "Ok" but it failed to work. The number of rounds remained 5 (we were at the end of round 3 at the time). I got no error message, and the field was not disabled, but it did not work.

Yes the same broblem when u host a team match.

last night i hosted a team match between voulgraf and set up a 16 board match, but couse of some trubles in the start we were delayed and we diseded to reduse the boards from 16 to 12 so we could see the voulgraf from start.

But this was impossible, so we had to pass out the last 4 deals on both table to get same score. whould be nice if u can change nr of deals after start:)))

is normal that it is not or we woud see tds change for instance a 8 baord tourney into a 64 once it started.What u can do if tourney isnt to large is adjust a baord or 2 on every table to A==, lets say u got +- 20 tables, u can adjust 2 baords for each table in 1max2 minutes.

a td who do this is lightly to get hes td priviliges taken away very fast so this cant be the reason.

And if so why cant u change the nr of boards in a team match?

Many things about a T cannot be changed after creation
