We are running our second-ever shuffle tournament tomorrow at 3pm EST, so this is a just-in-time patch full of improvements/fixes to make it even better than our last one! If you haven't signed up yet, it's not too late; either sign up in game or in our discord with command +signup
BUG FIXES
- Fixed bug where party only teams rejoin wouldn't properly assign the team for non-host/non-rejoiner
- Match settings are no longer overwritten by someone joining the party while a match is active
- Fixed bug where players weren't actually leaving the queue when they clicked Back in the online lobby
- Fixed bug where if party leader leaves online queue, other party members were staying in queue
NEW FEATURES
- Added South Africa to list of relay server regions
- Rejoins are now supported for tournament matches
SHUFFLE TOURNAMENT IMPROVEMENTS
- Shuffle tournaments are now handled completely using the in-game tournament queue, and discord for communication
- Signing up for the next tournament can now be done while the current tournament is active
- Placement matches automatically have mercy rule off and playoffs have mercy rule on
- Shuffle tournaments now support 4v4s in the case the number of attendees not being divisible by 6
- Shuffle teams will now be assigned random fun names instead of Matchup #X Team #Y
- Links to stream, standings, and next tournament signup page show up on the waiting screen in game while in queue
- Spectators can now also queue for tournaments so room codes no longer need to be coordinated
- Players in the tournament queue who aren't signed up for the tournament are now kicked out; this previously caused bugs with seeding
- Several other improvements to tournament standings and signup webpages as well as discord commands
