Couple of time saving suggestions,

How about the following stuff :

When TM starts, it will check for an backupfile, if the date on the backup file is newer then the last tournament, it will assume the computer crashed and load the backup (so in case of a crash tournament can resume really fast)

If there is no crash, then load the latest tournament together with the last used console files and password.

Would save me at least 3 minutes everytime I start it up (let's say 100 people using it monthy, saves a total of 60 hours (yearly) which can be used for mowing the grass). Smile

- Looking up the password, entering it (every time again)
- Loading the consoles (I do not like the way it's loading from my windows homedirectory, as an system administrator, I would say it's not very proper).
- Loading the tournament

How hard can it be to get this done compared to all the other stuff.

2 of the three things you asked for in this are implemented as of the 4/24 release.

If you really want the auto-reopening of a tournament, please create a new request. That particular one would be tricky.
