It has been brought to our attention that the word 'OLD' carries a negative connotation. With this in mind, we use discontinue the use of the OLD icon and replace it with the once used silver ball icon.



The other 3 new icons will remain in use.

I like the new icons. Especially easy in finding the TPA tournaments.

Great to see these in use!

This can be used in the mafia forum. You just have to convince the mods over there to do it. It's up to them.

Maybe you should have used "Wise" to satisfy the geriatric community here. Or "aged" like a fine wine!

Those might have worked!!

So what does the "GF" icon mean?

Grand Finale

I'll make an update to the OP.

Not to sound dumb, but what exactly is a Grand Finale?

If you want a precis, a Grand Finale is a special tournament at the end of a series of tournaments, rewarding the winners of the subsidiary tournaments. The series must be at least 8 tourneys long, and there is no organisers' medal or winners' medal, although there is a GA medal for the winner.

close to true.

some GF's have medals for the winner and no GA medal. some have no medal for the winner but a GA is given.

in some cases the GF is added to the database for the host so it is included in the overall tally of completed tournaments. whether a medal is awarded or not is a moot point as most hosts have already maxed out their 30.

in some cases the GF win is added to the database for the winner, for others it is not. i haven't bothered to check if that corresponds to the awarding of medals mentioned above but i think it did.

Updated the OP. I have handed over the reigns of this Tournament subforum to crazymilkshake5.

Hi. What is the difference between red and grey icons?

They're all listed in the first post:

The icons will be used as follows:

• Tournaments that are 3 days old or newer will be marked with this icon:
• Tournaments that are 4-23 days old with be marked with this icon:
• Tournaments that have 7 days or less left for sign ups will be marked with this icon:
• Tournaments that a TD has questions about before if being opened will be marked with this icon:
• Official Tournaments will be marked with this icon:
• TPA Tournaments will be marked with this icon:
• Grand Finale Tournaments will be marked with this icon:

There's no red ones, though. Do you mean the red and grey bullets? If you have red bullets on a thread, that means you haven't read it, or something new has been posted since the last time you read it.
