[QUOTE="Morgenes, post: 2573960, member: 15267"] [b]Website Changes[/b] I'm looking to do some updates to the website before the next Game Day, and was looking to get some feedback from you guys on what I can do to make it easier to use the website. Your feedback in the past has been very helpful, and I hope the site has improved in it's usability for you as well. I've heard some question/complaints about the 'Type' on events. Currently it is one of: Walk-In Game[INDENT]This type of event is the default, and means seats will be available at the event as well as online.[/INDENT] Tournament[INDENT]A series of games resulting in a champion (usually associated with prizes)[/INDENT] Reserved Game[INDENT]Seats are only available at the game day.

From what I've heard, I'm planning on adding one new 'Type' to events called 'Pre-reg Only'. This type of event will only allow for on-line pre-registration for the event. Once it's full, it's full (unless someone cancels). Even if there are still seats available (it doesn't fill), anyone who shows up at the event who isn't pre-registered will not be able to get in on this game.
