Guys, the new tournament display is a big improvement.

Adding entry count and not having to refresh are great ideas.

Also you did not mention it, but not having to "PIN" a window is very smart. You might want to take that concept to things like the user pop-up. Pin is an irritation.

I have some additional suggestions for the tournament page, while it is fresh on developers' minds.
1) Add a tournament number column (perhaps left of Title column) and take the tournament number out of the title.
Often directors send out an announcement to ask for subs by tournament number. Now they appear raggedly at right end of description,
Giving it, its own column makes it easy to find (especially if one realizes that most of the columns are sortable).

2) Add Entry limit column - Automated express often is "closed" before it starts. Might as well see that before clicking "More" or "Register"

3) If a member clicks on Type, to sort by Indy vs Pairs, retain a "subsort" by "Status"
A suitable alternative would be to have "radio buttons" at the bottom "Individual", "Pairs", "Both"

4) A visual "cue" that sorting appears IFF you have clicked on a column title. Maybe it would be nice to "cue" that somehow so people even know that it is there. For example, an up/down/unsorted icon?

5) If Refreshing is unnecessary - take away the Refresh button

Anyway, the new screen is a big improvement. Congratulations.

Maybe put a circle-slash over the JOIN button when the tourney is full, to avoid using space for another column.

Alternatively, instead of a message saying "Registration Failed", say "Tournament Full" if that is the case.

BTW, I think I ran into a glitch. I tried to join a tourney that was full in Robot World, and afer saying Registration Failed, the entire tourney list cleared out. Going Home and back into Robot World cleared it up.

I tried to repeat my actions and it didn't reproduce. I think maybe the first time I joined at the same time as the other player that caused it to hit the limit, while it was already at the limit when I tried the second time.

When we click "Register" for a pairs tournament, it would be nice if the partnership desk showed without having to ask for it.

While we're at it... can't the "More" and "Registration" screens be combined into one?

First, I registered in speedball tourney.
Later, I was not able to verify quickly whether I registered or not and it was confusing.
So, I also registered robot tourney.
Both starting at the same time.
When the tourney started, I was placed in robot tourney and cancelled the speedball.
My partner was disappointed.
Suggestion that Registration should not take place if already done at the same time tourney.

Fast way to check whether you registered or not : the Registration button becomes yellow when the registration is successful.
