Im very happy to see that this community has gained quite a lot of followers.
Just a few things i want to mention about ITST and the things you seem to run into.
If you get this message it means your account is not linked to a tour.
Tournament Signup
You can not signup for this a PC Full Ace Tennis tournament.
We have quite a lot of tours running and a mistake is easily made. We dont want people to accidently sign up for tournaments on the wrong tour. Missing for example Wimbledon because of something like that can be very dissapointing.
Fixing this is very easy. Do these steps:
- Go to your personal page.
Click change your user profile.
There you want to check the Xbox 360 player checkbox.
Submit and you are able to sign up.
A better method to handle this is on our to do list.
The other thing you guys ran into is the validation process. When you sign up for a tournament you receive a confirmation mail. It means you are signed up for a tournament but not validated yet. Validation is more an administrative process on our side and its nothing for you to worry about. I wont bore you with the reasons why we do this but a tournament host has to validate every sign up.
I guess it would be a good thing to mention some general things as well about ITST. The tournament host i just mentioned is someone overseeing the tournament. When a deadline for a round is there he will make a decision about the matches that where not played. If you have any problems with a match then contact them. They will make a decision on the information they have and cannot be expected to chase you around for information. That is also why we want you to schedule matches using the ITST forum messaging system. Tournament hosts can see the messages that are sent between you and your opponent. If you schedule a match on msn, this forum or in the game lobby then the tournament host knows nothing about it. You can always sent him the conversations you had with your opponent but do this in a timely fashion. Who the tournament host for a particular tournament is can be seen on the tournament page of a tournament page. A tournament page can be accessed anywhere on the site by clicking on the tournament name. The Wimbledon tournament page for example is here: http://www.intertopspintour.net/index.p ... pc&gc=FAPC . The tournament host can be seen on the top right of the page. For this tournament it is me. On the tournament page you can also see how many points this tournament will gain you, on what court you should play on and if you play best of 3 of best of 5.
Just know i can be contacted day and night with questions or problems regarding ITST. I only reply by day though.
I do have a question for you guys. I dont want to have this tournament without character limitation rules. So what do you guys think would be good character limitations? Please be specific. I think if we work together we can set up some rules that will make the tour very enjoyable now and in the future.
