Hi Michael,
If you ever wondered what I am using for my Swiss Tournament. It is a program called Vega 7.4.8 www.vegachess.com author Luigi Forlano
It is brilliant as it provides great tables for export to xls etc and it automatically creates a pretty site that you keep either locally or add it to your own website.
Check it out sometime. For my uses I thought it was the best one out there. It is also free for up to 30 participants. If you have more than that then you can buy it.
Best regards

thanks - I'll check it!
Can you generate a complete round robin tournament plan beforehand, without having the results yet or do you have to enter the result before starting the next round?
Regards, Michael
I don't know it has a lot of options. I remember setting mine up to do the rounds each time based on the previous round results because of having so many programs without a real rating established.
Don't change what you have already created, it's fine and works. I just wanted to show you Vega because of the many options it has and the way it creates webpages without you doing any work. Maybe you will find it useful someday for a Swiss or Team tournament.
Best regards
Nick

Hi Nick,

I got an answer from Luigi, the programmer of Vega: Luigi will implement the round robin calender in html for webpages - currently the round robin calender is only available in .txt format.spacious_mind wrote:Hi Michael,blaubaer wrote:Hi Nick,
