Here's what I've been working on for the last week:



Notice:
- Fixed breaks!! You can name them, specify their start time and how long they last.
- An estimations panel (working on that). You'll be able to predict when the tournament will end (taking all breaks, including fixed, into account).
- Constantly updated start/end times for each level, taking the current time and fixed breaks into account.
- If a fixed break occurs during a level, the schedule automatically keeps track of where to pick up after the break is over.
- The ability to insert segments anywhere in the schedule.
- The ability to set the duration/game/console/limit/ante/bring-in/small blind/large blind/small bet/large bet/add-ons/rebuys of multiple segments at once.
- The ability to import a blind schedule component.
- The ability to save this blind schedule as a new component.
- The ability to select all segments with the push of a button.
- The ability to select all pre-tournament segments with the push of one button.
- The ability to select all breaks with the push of one button.
- The ability to select all play segments with the push of one button.

It's awesome.

Maybe I should have posted this before...On the pre level, is it possible to post a start time (say 7:30 PM) instead of minutes? When I first start TM on the day of my home game, I have to calculate the number of minutes from that time until my true start time...it would be great if I could just enter the start time of the game, and it would take care of it!

The way it works now is the way it'll work in v3, but it'll be more clear in v3:
- You specify the tournament start time
- Sometime before the tournament, select the "start countdown" option from the console. It'll ask you when you want the tournament to start and start the countdown.

Again, this will be easier in v3....but it's possible in v2 now.
