Someone else is editing your tournament

[sandiem]

Was just modifying a tournament I had set up when a message flashed up saying "someone else is modifying your team game or tournament".

 

How is this possible? I am the only director?

This happens if you try do change anything Right after you clicked on modify. If you change anything and "modify" you have to close your tournament before being able to modify again. Otherwise you do get that message.

 

Kind regards

BBO likes to give paradoxical and stern error messages when you give a superfluous command, to keep you on your toes B-)

If you are already clicked to register for a tournament and when nothing happens you click again, or if you select the table that you are already watching, or similar.

The only one to worry about is "You have been replaced and are no longer playing in this tournament" - that means you really have been kicked out, because it was your turn to play and you didn't realise (there is no warning sound).

 

Another easy way to go wrong with tournaments is to absent-mindedly click 'Close' when done - it just throws your work away obediently and silently.
