Are you setting a start time?

Derek-C-Goodwin

yes and a date (within acceptable parameters)

this time the tournament just refreshes to the submit stage, no error, but it wont submit.

The Tournament creat option within Play works. Don't use https://www.chess.com/tournament/create on the Play > Tournament page

I think that old page is planned to be retired and there must have been a code change that caused that page to break. I'm trying to find out if it is planned to he retired or if it needs updated to work with the new code

The first option via create tournament does have a much nicer and user friendly way to it, although that could be cos I am so used to it. The full page option in the original create format is easy to see everything, the new way through play gives a limited size window to work in.

Your efforts to fix evedrything are greatly appreciated and you are held in high regard.

Thanks you.

i created some type of tournament which i cant erase (because i cant find it anymore) ... but cant seem to create a daily tournmant ... once i press "2" (from message #15 above) i then have the option of Swiss or Arena ... not sure which is which but with either one i cant set daily time controls (normally set to 2 days per move) ... historically i've use the method im instructed to no longer use from message #9 above ... but it's giving me error messages ...
