When I try to copy a completed tournament, a traditional-standard type tournament, I get the following message: "Don't know how to copy tournament type"

Okay, here's the plan for when you copy a traditional-standard:
- The game
- The scoring method
- The preferred theme
- Fixed cash amounts
- Chip purchase options
- Table setup
- Chip case
- Betting schedule
- Payout schedule
- Global public bounties and global side bets
- The checklist (initialized)

What I'm not sure about copying
- The league setting (you can change that easily enough)
- The player database setting (you can change that easily enough)
- Expenses

What WON'T be copied
- The name (you'll need to set that)
- The start date/time (you'll need to set that)
- Global targeted bounties and private sidebets


Thoughts?

I would include the league setting, player database, and expenses in the copy function. Like you said, they are easy enough to change. Also, I think people would be copying a template tournament so they could quickly set up the next (or all) tournaments in a league fairly quickly.

i agree i think the only thing we change each tourny would be any bounties or sidebets.

OK. It's in the next release.

Just like I said above, except:
- League setting is copied
- Player database setting is copied
- ALL bounties and sidebets are copied, except for participants and targets
