public tournament platform

Hey guys!

This is Fletch - I’m posting to announce the release of new free tournament tools from z33k.com.

Over the past few months we’ve been developing a platform for smoothly running Starcraft 2 tournaments. Now we’re opening up this platform for the community – meaning anyone can now create and run a tournament. Some of the cool abilities that our platform offers are: brackets that automatically update when a player reports and uploads the replay, player stat tracking (win-loss record), one-click tournament signup (no manual forum signups), and perhaps most exciting is the ability for players to subscribe to your tournament group – allowing you to update fans about new events. We also expect to roll out drag-and-drop bracket seeding within the week!

z33k is a small independent startup run entirely by volunteers. As gamers ourselves, we’re dedicated to building useful tools for the community. Our site is completely free to use. If you’ve got a team or community that is looking to host a tournament, I invite you to try it out!

Our developers are interested in hearing your feedback as tournament organizers, so if you have suggestions or questions let me know and I can pass it along.

See you in the brackets!

Best regards,

Fletcher LaRue

Hi Fletcher! Sounds cool, I'll encourage bobo our tourney guy to give u guys a shot :)

You guys do a daily tournament :O. That is awesome i'm definitely going to check some of these out :)

Fletch, your site doesn't appear to support the GMT+10 timezone in account profiles :( Any reason why the available list of timezones is so brief?

Hey Shroom,

I sent your request to our developers and I'll see if I can get them to add your time zone among others. Thanks for the feedback!
