Hi there Guys,
Can anyone help? I am looking for a tourney software manager that works on XP for 32/64 and 128 double elim.
Look forward to hearing from you.

The Pool Tournament Manager is available over at playpool.com or at my site: Dave's Pool Tools.

The Pool Tournament Director is in progress and should be available in the first quarter of 2004.

I've installed it on XP with no problems. Just make sure you accept all the installation defaults.

I've posted the documentation that has been done so far for the new Pool Tournament Director. You will need adobe acrobat to access the file. You can go to my web site Dave's Pool Tools or just click here to access the file directly.

It is not complete by any means and I'm asking for your comments and suggestions for what you would like to see in this kind of software.

Thanks in advance.
 
Thanks to everyone for your response. I will be taking a look at these and keep you posted.
 
The pool tournament director programming is completed as well as the documentation and in is alpha (in-house) tesst mode. If you are interested you can view the documentation by going to my web site and select the Pool Tournament Director or by clicking here.

Comments are appreciated.
 
What are the system requirements for this software? I might by a cheap used Pentium Laptop if it would work. What version of windows do i need? I run a few tournaments and something like this might help alot.

On the sample round robin summary page, how come you only won 7 matches? I think you’d be a shoe in to win all 8 with nearly a 100% game winning percentage.

This looks very cool. Great job.

It should run on all flavors of windows from '95 and up. I'm currently running on XP.

It looks best at 1024x768. Screens sizes of 800x600 will have scroll bars on a few screens.

If you can run windows, The Pool Tournament Director should run just fine!

I had seriously considered writing it in Java so it would run on other platforms, but an old buddy made my favourite programming language open source and I decided to use it instead.

Saw in the paper today that Microsoft decided to extend their support of Windows'98 and ME until 2006. They were going to drop support Dec 31, 2003. I'd advise getting XP as it really is an improvement over '98. Buy lots of memory, not for the "Director", for the operating system.

Thanks Rick,

Modesty forced me to give myself a loss in one match. I usually lose most fantasy tournaments (real ones too), but decided to win this one.:D

The pool tournament manager can be used for 32 players at a time, and then when you get down to 16 transfer them to another 32 player bracket and continue playing ... Apply same logic for 128 players except keep track is a little more difficult.

ALSO, I developed an EXCEL spreadsheet that automates as much as possible what is called the CRAZYBOARD Tournament with 12 players or scotch double teams.
BCA rules and averages used. Handicapped.

Email me at Snapshot9Scott@netscape.net with Crazyboard in the subject heading to get a copy of the software ... Free
