Subject: Tournament Winner Notification

Just made the last the move in a tournament which Fencer won. Now, I think it would be nice to stroke his ego if he were to receive a message in his in-box saying that "such-and-such-a-tournament" had finished and he was the winner. This could even be extended to all participants to let them know the tournament was complete and how they did ... could even be an automated link to the standing table ... what do you think winner (congrats :)

Whisperz: It will be implemented. Due to performance issues, all tournaments will be checked once a hour outside BrainKing application [maybe even from a different server]. As a part of the automatic tournament start script.
Lythande: Maybe I missed your point but what about to define a tournament with BKR boundaries? 1800-2000, for example.

Fencer: We can do that, yes, but what about those outside that range? That would be a lot of extra tournaments, and the more there are, the less chance enough people will join, and a lot of extra db space if a tournament were started for ever 200 BKR range. What I meant, was a tournament where anyone could join, but when the sections were set up (with this option checked) each section would include players within a set range of each other.

I've no doubt it would be tons of new code, because I haven't seen anything here like it (afaik).
