This is an advanced topic about automatic tournament management (automatic court and match-queue management).
Let's use a live testing tournament to demonstrate the procedure.
The system automatically manages courts and match-queue.

6. Test tournament page appears


Click page menu then click Queue runtime.

7. Queue runtime page appears


This is the 'control panel' of the tournament. It is the most important page for the tournament on the day of play.
There is one queue of matches for each facility. We have one facility (Small gym) shown on the top line.
Let's click Start queue button to start the queue. Actually, you can Start queue on the day before if you want.

8. Start queue page appears


This page actually is a confirmation page. It lists all adopted events for your convenience. Let's click on Start queue button.

9. Queue has started

If your device is narrow, you will see the page like:

Each match is a section. Now please turn your device horizontally, so we can see each match is one line.

There is a horizontal menu bar. The selected menu item of the menu bar is Ongoing. So this is the 'Ongoing' view, the matches (queuers) we see matches and courts. We have three courts for Small gym. All of three courts are occupied.
Let's click on Waiting menu item in the menu bar to see 'Waiting' view.

10. 'Waiting' view


The matches we see now are waiting for courts.
Let's click on Ongoing menu on the horizontal menu bar to go back to 'Ongoing' view of Queue runtime.

11. Back to 'Ongoing' view

Now let's click on the first match.

12. Match/game page

The game page appears. There is only one game in the match for this turorial:

A referee can be assigned any time. If it is not assigned, you can do it now.
Let's click on Referee link.

13. Assign referee page appears



Let's check one and click on Assign selected button.

A confirmation page appears. Just confirm it by clicking on Assign selected button.
An information page appears indicating the referee was assigned.

14. Back to game page

We come back to game page. The newly assigned referee is shown.

Let's click on Close button to go back to Queue runtime page.

15. Queue runtime page appears again


Assign referee (optional) is the only thing that the manager needs to do to start the match.
Now, we have taken care of the match, we want to make a mark by click on the small smile face.

When a court is assigned, all players of the match will get a notification email. They need to report to the management center (or to the assigned court, as the tournament's choice). The manager assigns a referee (optional), players go to the assigned court. If the attribute of Who can referee match of your tournament is All, you do not need to assigned referee, the players will assume the duty of referee.


Suppose we did all that for other matches on Ongoing. Lets mark the all.
