Funny you should mention that! I'm developing a website that will allow players to be notified about local tournaments. If a user creates a tournament it would then send out an email to everyone within a player-specified-distance and who has specified the game system alerting them to the fact that the tournament exists. One option the
TO would have would be to allow players to register via the website - but that won't be a requirement. I hope to be beta testing it at my club early next year (hopefully by March 2014).
It'll do some other stuff, too. Initially I was trying to develop something very similar to Torrent of Fire but Chip Boyd beat me to it
Once it's out of beta I'll probably start posting announcements about it around the interweb...still need to come up with a cool name though. The project is called Tournament Management System. Sounds like IBM made it...besides www.tms.com is already taken...
