A couple of suggestions for the tournament boards:
Allow scrolling the board. The “Top Ranked” and “Your Rank” buttons will simply jump to those entries respectively, but otherwise you can freely scroll up and down.
…often wondererd who else is in my pool, or what the spread is outside the top and the 10 players around me…
Following a tournament, post the final board. The event icon can just change to a “Event Over”, and selecting it would simply display the final board. This wouldn’t have to stick around long…maybe just until the next event ends. …just long enough so that those interested can see how the final standings went down…
I second the leaderboard thing. It’s nice to get a post saying you were top 5 or top 15 or top 3000 but how close was it? Did I miss out by 1 point on getting into the next bracket, or was I not even close? It would also be nice if there was some kind of character record where you could see your placing in all the tournaments you’ve been in.
That would go a long way towards debugging issues, and improving the system…
…but it would also likely lead to much confusion. People would be wondering what the numbers mean, and it would then have to be precisely explained somewhere…
