Better pairings!

This release fixes a serious pairings bug. Previous releases gave correct pairings much of the time, but there was some luck involved in that. This release should always give the correct pairings.

First maybe-usable version!

This version automatically saves the tournament every time something is changed, can load tournaments from save files, can load old versions/states of the tournament (so basically undo), can edit players, and can edit match results.

It still doesn't allow for manually changing the pairings, and I've done some things that might not scale well and have not tested them with really big tournaments, so it's not ready to run anything major. But I think it should be adequate for running some smallish test tournaments now.

Excalibur now requires a save file to be specified on the command line. If the file exists, the newest save in it is loaded; if it doesn't exist, it is created. If it exists but is not an excalibur save file, probably bad things happen. I didn't try it.

Fixed pairings, bind to localhost

This release fixes the two minor issues that could cause wrong pairings. It also fixes the web server for the UI so it only listens for connections from localhost.

Still not recommended for actually running tournaments, for basically the same reasons as the previous release.

First proof-of-concept

This has the pairings engine basically working, so you can use it to see how it would work and to try to find bugs.

You shouldn't use this version for actually running tournaments. It is missing important features for real use. Most critically, it cannot:

• save or load tournaments
• edit players
• edit matches
• edit match results

I have only tested this on Linux and Windows, but I don't expect the OS X versions to behave any differently.

Windows Firewall will block this and yell about it. That's fine, you only want it to see connections from your own computer anyways.
