Alphabetizing the ongoing tournaments

by **Super Nova** on Fri Oct 22, 2010 5:12 pm

Concise description:

Instead of having the ongoing tournaments in order of last posted on, lets just have them in alphabetical order, that way they're always in the same spot, and you can find them much quicker. Putting them in order by the date they were put on the ongoing tournamets list is also an option.

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:

It's much easier to find a specific tournament, instead of having to scan through ten pages. For all those premiums who are in a ton of tournaments, this will be especially useful. I know that sounds odd coming from a freemium, but oh-well.

Perhaps the tournament moderators could maintain a stickied topic or an announcement in the Ongoing forum with an alphabetized list of links to the appropriate topics.

The forums can't be sorted like that, well, that is to say, there isn't a builtin setting for that. It could be done with a Modification, however I'm not sure that this is prioritized high enough to be included as a new MOD.

I suspected as much, which is why I posted my alternative solution to the problem.

We already have it: the Tournament Database at the top of every page. One of the search parameters is Ongoing tournaments and it orders them alphabetically.

Hey, that's terrific. I have only played in a few tournaments, and until moments ago, I have never clicked that Tournaments button in the top menu. I always found my way in through the forum. Now, could that tournament finder be enhanced so that I could see if there are posts I have not yet read without clicking to the first page of the topic?
