Chrome/Desktop notifications
Just like with Facebook, Twitter and various other sites, how about having Chrome or Desktop notifications for next matchups and tourney starts/ends in addition to the emails? It would be a lot more convenient to the participants that might be multitasking or doing something else during the times they would need to be participating

Extra options to finish or close the tournament
It seems interesting to allow a tournament to close prematurely. I have thought of some use cases that would enjoy having this option:
A suspended tournament: In case the tournament can't be hosted or fails to gather enough contestants, but the organizers still want it to be posted for reference. It could be just an alternative to deleting a tournament.
A tournament that did start but couldn't finish. It could happen because of an accident (electricity gone or hardware failures), time issues, problems with the contestants or organizers... again, instead of deleting the tournament you could just close it and…

Move existing tournaments into a community
Will help with archiving and moving in planned tournaments.
Currently, an issue for me, as attempting my community page makes it look spartan without our major tournaments listed, especially with future ones planned out.

do not assign tournament participants to multiple stations
When using the station's auto assign feature, the algorithm should take care that participants are not assigned to multiple stations at the same time.

Custom Swiss Tie Breaker
Some tournament formats for games I play include a different tie breaker method for Swiss style tournaments, often based on "Strength of Schedule" (similar to current method, but not dropping highest and lowest). Also, some may require second or third tie breaker methods. Would be great if we could add additional tie breaker methods and customize them.

Running Leaderboard
I run regular events for various games and would love to have a running leaderboard, with point totals and such that can be imported from events run on Challonge or Manually entered. Looking to be able to set a Lifetime Leaderboard, and a Seasonal Leaderboard. Leaderboard should have column for each events, and the number of points earned for that event, as well as a total points column. Clicking on an event can bring you to the challonge event if that was where it was run.

Allow images instead of names.
Even if it just allowing [img] tags with a pre-existing urls, that would help out a lot.
Sometimes an image work better then a name. Giving an example I am currently running a forum tournament for a retro fighting game. The game allow you to pick a character then set up the stats. There only about 10 characters on the game. Each forum member is allow to have three character each. While currently I am asking each character to be mark with a "tag" (Candy, Bones, Icedude, etc) so I can keep track of them it would be much easier…

Save tournament results before reset
We use to reset tournaments every year to start new ones. It would be great, if there was a history or a save option, so we can go back to check the old results. I know, that we could make screenshots too, but then the information about the points i the games won't be saved.

Triple Elimination Bracket
I am an assistant Tournament Organizer for a weekly Super Smash Bros tournament, and we usually run a double elimination bracket, but a lot of interest has arose in switching to a triple elimination bracket. This would give players with lesser experience to further compete in the tournament. I have searched all over the internet for well made triple elimination bracket generator, but it simply does not exist. We would have to do it out by hand every week, which would be extremely tedious. To add a triple elimination bracket to Challonge would be extremely helpful, and we would be…

Add a King of the Hill ladder tournament format
Well, I am thinking that you guys should add a King of the Hill ladder tournament format to give those who like ladder style tournaments a chance to create some of their own. Please take it into consideration. Thank you so much.

Expose Stations to the API
Currently there is no way to retrieve the Station of a game from the Developer API.
Exposing the station through the Match object will allow us to streamline some of the hiccups of organising matches to be played.

Manually Edit Loser's Bracket
When utilizing challonge in addition to other tournament software, often times the Loser's bracket seeding is different. If we could manually shift around the loser's bracket side as well, it would be nice.

Allow Cross-Origin Requests for Javascript API usage
Hello,
Our University does not allow us to use server-side requests to implement the Challonge API. We must use Javascript API's for all our purposes. I was wondering if it would be possible to enable Cross-Site AJAX scripting in your web server configuration.
We will be creating an unlisted page that allows us to manage our tournament.
Thank you,

Randomize matches
I would like an option to randomize the matches, as opposed to selecting the victors. This way, the tournament would be completely fair. Here is how I would go about lt: when you select the question mark next to a match, there will be a, 'Random', checkbox in between the two (or more) contenders. There should also be a, 'Randomize All', feature, which randomizes the victor of the entire tournament.

Allow Organizers to set the value for losses as well as Draw/Win.
There are some newer games that have values associated with losses.
Win: 3
Draw: 0
Loss: 1Can you allow Challonge to manipulate loss points?
