Esports Heaven with changes

After several weeks and months of hard work we are finally able to roll out some major changes to the Esports Heaven website and tournament system. As you will have seen, the activity of the site has gone up again and to boost that even further we are proud to present you a full list of changes and updates to the website.

Tournament System

The tournament system has been overhauled and revamped to make life easier on the admins and users of this site. Running and adminning a tournament has become easier then ever before and you can create your own cups and tournaments from now on!

The full list
  • Admin Interface Revamp
  • User Generated Cups!
  • Greater control of sub-admins
  • General Interface Upgrades
  • Top 3 of newly run tournaments now have cups displayed on their player and team profile after finishing top 3 in a tournament.
  • Fancy Text Editor for the news, forums and commenting system
  • Upgrade on Page browser
  • Tournament Brackets view slightly improved, rounded boxes and full screen
  • Check in System for tournaments to improve the amount of no-shows and reduce them
  • Player ID reorganisation
  • You can game filter matches
  • And much, much more

How to organise your own tournament

Organising and adminning your own tournament has never been so easy to setup and do. Simply click on the "Host A Cup" tab in the main menu bar (on the top of the site) and you will be taken to an easy to fill out form where you can define the parameters of the tournament you would like to run. You can select between single and double elimination, group stages, various games, maps, timings, seeding systems and much more.

Then wait a bit for your tournament to be accepted by an admin and you are good to go!

Further suggestion as to what we can include in the next update are welcome and if you want to help Esports Heaven grow by becoming an admin or helping out in any other way feel free to send us a message!

Bugs can be reported here.

or then again just use tourney.cc site where everyone has accounts
+1

would be nice if it was integrated across all heaven media sites so that your cf account was your tek9 account and your cadred and your esports heaven account (that would be v.easy to do) and then have the cups available across all websites and games and even combining games
Parent
would have tons of conflicts due to same nicks
Parent
yeh but you could get around that by indexing by email rather than nickname and do something like

ethr_cf for an ethr registered on crossfire
ethr_t9 for ethr on tek9

until a system is made to link accounts

either that or just build it into the next generation of Heaven Media websites and abandon the current login databases
Parent
Heaven Media don't upgrade crossfire. Ever.
Parent
why not??

they own it :p

who does the crossfire coding then? anyone working on cf4 ?
Parent
They don't really care. I'm working with adrenaline on cf 3.1, and tosspot is working on cf 4.0
Parent
thats bit wierd but ok...
Parent
This could be done using openid (google sh*t)..
Parent
openid isnt google directly but anyway i think thats a little extreme but it could be an idea ;-)

depends if you want to link your 'esports' personality with all your other personalities on the internet

would you for example want your 4-0 scrim loss posted on facebook? :P
Parent
I've disabled all the stuff which would post something on facebook etc. For example, kickasstorrents is working just fine with google openid. (or how you would like to call it..)
Parent
well like i said it depends on the person ;-)

either way linking all your esports personalities together (esl, cb, quakelive, cf, tek9 etc..) would be an awesome idea
Parent
trolled by roba :XD
Parent
problem officer?
Parent
Will be more ONWs coming for ET I guess, so I suggest doing it. And what you have to realise is that this is Heaven Media's news, not news just for Crossfire and the majority of CSS, TF2 and CoD4 players are registered to ESH. There's no reason for players to register on ESH's site.
Parent
i can only see any use for this if it is somehow implemented withhin crossfire.
otherwise there is no difference to tourney.cc
+1 agree

but i guess they want some clicks
Parent
cool. now we don't have to finish our project.
only goes for esports heaven main site though right? so not CF? cuz i dont see shit captain.
nice job :)
expected someone to be fired but well this isn't as amusing.
nice :)
who cares about ESH this is crossfire and heavenmedia is doing shit for us.
