I got my e-mail today. I wanna run some tournaments!

Problem is, we're holding League at a new location that noone knows about yet :(
 
Same here, Phoenix. I wish that there was actually somewhere to put actual information in that form so I could talk about my past TO experience.

*Still kicking himself for not applying to be a Premiere TO soon enough*
 
I Just checked pokemon-tcg.com and...

looks like there's 3 sanctioned tourneys so far. Great! Better tell my TO tomorrow! I hope we can sanction our tourney this saturday.
 
Therefore, I must believe my application has been rejected, wont lie to you, shed a tear, guess it has something to do with being in mexico, i wish mom and the rest of the crew a lot of happy tournaments, as for me, I am a tad dissappointed, hope its just a phase.
 
I am in the game now, I have sanctioned a tournament for my league in Fort Collins as requested. Based on my experience with the sanctioning it seems that tournament materials will be sent to the event. Wonder what those are. I also learned some things about the new computer program to operate the event. It seems that you have to generate a special file that first downloads as a .txt file then you convert it to its special format that the tournment magement system can read and edit. Then when that is done you can simply report the event by uploading the file on the op.pokemon-tcg.com site. It is everything I need to know and I think it is going to be a great program to use. (That is IF they now have age-modified swiss on the thing). Also note that the program download is 27MB so that is over three hours on a modem connection, better pick a good time to download it.

If anyone is still having trouble, should contact POP at [email protected].

The newest version of the program DOES support Age Modified Swiss.

I sure hope they added match slips... I went crazy trying to explain this and then having to make players wait while other signed the sheet each round:

It's counterproductive for the person recording results on the computer and for the judge who has to sign versus actually judging.

after clicking submit to sanction a tournament, i recieved an error, anyone else experience problems? also, why does it ask for shipping address? what is going to be shipped?
 
Whew - I was kinda worried when I didn't get any sort of email regarding my TO application (after everyone was reporting in that they now had!)... :( - even re-applied out of frustration...all this in spite of the fact that I had already successfully logged in nearly two week ago (when you couldn't really do anything).

Oh, and to top it all off, I could no longer log in using that same ID...

Great news, tho', as today I was able to log in and see all the new content and options!!!!!

Yahoo!TM (oops :p)

Now if I can just get enough players to run a sanctioned tournament - waitaminit - I'll bet if I plan one, sanction it, and announce it here I'll surely get enough players from the VA/DC/MD areas?!?!?
 
I never received the confirmation Email...but I'm able to log in into the TO page... But I have only the players'option for edit the profile, making a player card, view my profile, and another one. I use my Prof ID & pwd.
Is this because I'm not in USA and International TOs are not allowed to access to the TOs materials until OP starts in our country? °°

UPDATE: If I try to submit another application, there's an error of the form and I am unable to send it ... I can't wait to see the new software!

Nope this is because we wil not be recognised by the website at all as I understand it at the moment... all TO registration and orders of kits etc go through the distributors!!

So I guess it will take months if ever to get a league listed and months if ever to get your tourneys on there too.

But hey we can change our name and address details so that's cool ;)

You need to contact MTJimmer at [email protected] to fix your problem. I had the same situation.
 
My local PTO tried to sanction a tournament, and like Marcello-Milford, he could only view/edit his profile. Evidently, PTOs don't have TO authority yet to sanction tournaments. Hopefully, that will be fixed shortly. My PTO can't sanction our tournament yet for this this coming Saturday. :(
