X-Wing TO 1.0.3

A new update is available on the App Store. Here is what's new:

- the tournament results can now be printed, so that each player can see and check the results of his own matches.
- if you connect your device to a TV, the same results will be shown on a big screen, and updated as round results are entered
- the app doesn't use destroyed enemy points anymore. They were only used as a second tie breaker, and it was a bit cumbersome, time consuming and sometimes error prone to enter everything. As there is no official second tie breaker, I've chosen to use the sum of the opponents SoS. It complies with the idea that to break a tie, the best ranked player should be the one that had the most difficult opponents (and that's the official second tie breaker for SW LCG).
- the timer now includes more durations.
- the tournaments now have an image that can be customized, and are now sorted by date.
- avoiding mirror matches in the first round is now an option as this is not an official recommendation.

This updates also contains bug fixes and performance improvements (it now easily handles hundreds of players much faster than before).

If you have any suggestions, let me know ;)

Tournament Organizer 1.0.2 available

Tournament Organizer has recently been tested during a regional championship with 44 players. This stress test has revealed a serious performance issue with the first round pairing. The 1.0.2 version fixes this issue. It also includes the number of the tables players are assigned to, and some minor bug fixes.
