    Hi everyone,

    Now that CorvuSphere is starting to see some attention, there still remains a few issues. Firstly, I do like the concept and idea to implement a central application to collect and record games. With the recent additions notified on the home page, I do look forward to seeing it fully operational, and using it to record my games.

    It seems to be focussed mostly on TO level with creating tournaments. Which is okay. As a player who registered with a recent tournament, I am unable to load my lists as per the request for joining a tournament.

    I understand that I can load my lists when reporting the battle, but can a player actually do it just after a game, or do we report the information to the TO, who then selects all the information?

    It seems counter productive if I cannot allocate my lists to the tournament before it begins. And how would I even allocate lists during the tournament? Does the TO finally make it "open," and then we login before the games begin?

    Another issue is that I want to start inputting my casual games. But I can only make a casual tournament to do so. During my weekly games, we generally select the mission at random a day or two before we play. Now, that I have created a casual tournament just to play around with the app., I made it private and now I cannot search for it.
    Has anyone figured out how to find private tournaments? I would have thought that I could see my own tournaments I created, even as just a player and not a TO or WarCor.

    I understand CB want to accurately capture data, but it is hard when I cannot send it to anyone. No option to submit lists before the tournament (as explained in the ITS document rules).

    I guess I will find out next weekend how it should work.

    I haven’t had any issues uploading the lists before the tournament. Do you have them saved on the server?

    I still dont get how It makes the pairings... Make no sense.

    Saturday, for example; 3 players in the top tied to 10 TP before the last round. Sphere didnt pair any of them to play against.

    Also, it has problems with no repeating tables. But meh.

    Yes, saved under my CB I.D. I would have thought everything was linked and synched. Turns out, it is not.
    Although I have registered for the tournament, the tournament page still has no participants displayed.

    Partecipants need to be "accepted" by the organizer.

    I can see all of my Server Stored list from Army, even the one that are no longer valid due to cost changes...
    The old OTM sometimed did not display certain lists if they included a particular model, just try to edit a list and find it. They are pretty rapid with fixing things, if the source of the problem is known

    Okay, that makes sense. The T.O. accepting registered participants.

    I can see all my lists, but cannot submit or allocate for the tournament.

    In the news feed on CorvuSphere, they mention players can allocate their lists for each match, and have 7 days after the tournament to do so. I guess it's better than before, in terms of statistical data collection. Less work for T.O.'s having to check everyones lists for meeting the requirements. (Unsure if it is done.)

    I will just wait for game day to see how it works.
