Hi Wyrdos,
Today I am delighted to announce the formal release of bag-o-tools.com.
Some of you are already aware of what this is, but for those who are not, Bag O’ Tools is a Malifaux Event management system. It is a website for TO’s that offer a tool bag of features to help organise and run the average Malifaux event. This is just the surface of the functionality we offer:
Events:
Register players, generate fixtures, set up Strategy, Deployment and schemes. Round 1 will randomise fixtures and round 2 onwards generating Swiss fixtures while also insuring no one draws another player they have already played.
Display:
Hook up to a TV screen or monitor to give your participants a visual aid for the event. Display rotates between current league standings, fixtures table, results and current round countdown timer.
Scoresheet:
From their smartphones or tablets, the scoresheet lets players know their table number and opponent once fixtures are generated. They can also see current round strategy, schemes and deployment. From there they can even select schemes and publish the final game score to the TO (optional).
Live:
Can’t attend an event? No problem. Live allows people to keep track of what is happening at an event so they can still feel part of a tournament they couldn’t attend.
This year already we have had valuable feedback from TO’s who have used it. Some of this feedback has already gone back into improving Bag O’ Tools. We are always looking for feedback and suggestions from the community. So if you have something we encourage you to get in touch!
Cheers,
Jamie
