Lightning Chip Tourney software

This is close, but not quite correct.

Each player starts with a number of chips. Stronger players get less chips to start with.

Each match is only one game, and if you lose you are down a chip. The winner keeps the table and incoming player breaks.

Last man to still have a chip is the winner.

It's a very fun and fast format.

Gotcha --- So you don't gain chips, only lose them. Are there actual chips? Or are they electronic like "lives" in a videogame?
 
I GOT Lucky,

When you develop something with a GUI, let me know.

Rementis has saved me hours of work because I don’t have to rig a poorly optimized excel sheet version of their software.

Thanks for the database update. Subscribing to the thread for announcements.
 
Free! Lightning Chip Tourney software

Hi All,

over the last couple of months I've spent some time developing billiards tournament software and I think it's just about ready to share with the internet/billiards community.

Please download and try it out, you could even take a few moments to make up some player names and run a quick tourney. :)

I would welcome any feedback including suggestions for improvements.

This software is for running a "chip" tournament, where each player is granted a number of chips based on skill level. The players rotate around losing chips until there is a last player standing.

When you first start the software you will need to add a table and some players, then hit "b" to being the tourney. As any player reports a loss, hit "l" (loser) key, and the software will tell you who is next in line and where to send them.

Here is the link to the software, for Windows version you can click on ChipInstall.exe and then click Download.

Again, any feedback is welcome.
Are you still supporting the chip tourney software?
