Smash Master
The future of tournaments is here! This is an online tournament software app that allows you to manage your tournaments. The tournament app allows TOs to enter the phone numbers or emails of the entrants and the number of setups being used so the app can automatically text/email players telling them who they are scheduled to play and which setup to play on. All tournaments can be submitted to smashboards using the TIO/XML export feature. Twitch streams and chats can be embedded to create a one stop shop for viewers wanting to see the tournament and the bracket at once. The app is also mobile friendly, so you can manage and TO your tournament right from your phone! A dedicated mobile app for android and iphone will be available in app stores soon, for now try out the mobile version of the site on your phone. *Since privacy and security are our biggest concern, all contact information is destroyed from the site.
Features include:
-Bracket software. Just like challonge or tiopro featuring single and double elimination styled brackets.
-Text/email notifications and setup management. Just enter the number of setups for the tournament and it will automatically manage the matches. Players receive text/email notifications telling them who to play and on which setup. When a match is finished, just report the outcome and it will automatically allocate the open setup to a new match. You can also with a single click set matches for stream and resend text notifications to players. *phone numbers and emails are not required for entry, they are optional and all contact information is destroyed.
-Smashboards rankings integration and TIO export. After a tournament is finished you can export the tournament to a tio/xml file and upload it to smashboards.
-Embedded streams. If your tournament also has a twitch stream, you can upload the stream to the app and it will embed it right into the bracket along with the twitch chat so people can watch the stream and see the bracket all from the same screen.
-Its online. Anyone, anywhere in the world can access and see the bracket. Each tournament gets a unique URL that can be shared with anyone so they can view it wherever they are.
-Mobile support. A dedicated mobile app will be available soon but for now the site is fully functional and mobile friendly. From any smart phone you can view and manage the tournaments right from your fingertips. In your phones browser navigate to the site or your unique tournament URL and view/manage it from there.
-Sitewide SSL for that extra layer of protection. *SSL does not come in studded, ribbed, or hot/cold sensation versions
-Internal private message system. You can send messages and communicate with other TOs and site members right from the site. MasterHand is the site administrator who is just a message away from helping you with any tournament needs.
-Unique URLs for each user. Each user will get a profile that they can share with followers and entrants to stay up to date with past, present, and future tournaments. URL is advancedbrackets.com/username. Example URL, https://advancedbrackets.com/shears
-Payment management. Entrants can be flagged as paid to keep track of who is good and who owes money.
-Pre-registration. Entrants can now sign up and join your tournament before they get to the event. Entrants simply go to the tournament from their computer or mobile phone and join before the tournament is started.
-Embedded youtube videos. After a tournament is complete, any streamed or recorded matches that are uploaded to youtube can be attached to each match. Simply click on the match, paste the youtube url, and click upload.
-Users can report their own matches. Don't worry though, if anything is reported incorrectly the TO can simply re-enter the correct results.
-StreamManager. This awesome application is now available for download and allows you to sync your bracket with your stream to automatically upload the names, bracket position, and more with the click of a button.
No more will TOs have to run around screaming at players telling them which TV to play on or who to play against. No more will a player miss their match because they were in the bathroom or out getting food and didn't know who they had to play or where. The future of tournaments is here and all the TO problems have been solved. A video tour will be coming out shortly to help show everyone all of the apps new and awesome features and how to use them.
If you have any comments, suggestions, or have a problem to report, do not hesitate to let me know. My goal is to make this the best and easiest tournament software in the world. Help me help you. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated.
