Default New "BJT Attendees" concept

I'm trying out an idea here to manage a list of who will be attending an event listed on the calendar.

Feel free to try it out by visiting a tournament on the calendar, and click the links under BJT Attendee List.

If it seems to be a useful addition, I'll likely roll out more visibility across the site.
Feedback welcome.

Note that weekly or monthly events don't have an attendee list function.

Thumbs up Calendar Addition

I think it is a very nice addition.
If you just want to confess to attendance without adding any comments or very brief comments it is easy.
I also like the idea of not having to wade through posts just to see who is planning on showing up to an event.

I still have mixed feelings about the feature so far, but more changes were installed today.

Recent additions to the attendee data can be viewed with the "Attendee Notices" link in the menu at left. You can also view a particular user's listings, and a particular event's listings.

A quick note as to where I think this feature is most useful. I plan to integrate a display of a handful of important upcoming tournaments into the site. I figured that BJT member attendance should be a key factor in deciding which events to highlight.

Default Sorting Attendees List

Ken

I like the new attendees listing, but....would it be possible to enable sorting the list by tournament? Or, have a listing of upcoming tournaments with attendees, that would be easily and quickly accessable? Would be a nice and useful feature.

A list of the "most attended" tournaments is on the way.

In the meantime, you can of course go to a specific event to see who is attending.

Default Attendee feature

I really like the feature alot gives me a chance to pick and choose tournaments based on who is playing.

One little issue if I need to bow out I can't seem to change my attendee status. So I assume I just change the comments to something like "sorry wont make it".

Still really like the feature.

Yes, I agree there needs to be a way to revise your status. In the meantime the comments will serve just fine.
