Reserve rooms during a scheduled time block #8

Closed cecilgol closed 3 years ago

This is clearly a long term suggestion, but it would be nice to have the ability to reserve and designate rooms for a specific task during a scheduled time block.

For example,

A room was used for a morning debate round with the intention to turn it into extemp prep later in the day. That information was not clearly communicated (our issue) and the room was used for a later debate round.

It would be ideal if we could have designated it as being used for extemp prep during semis and finals which would hard preclude another group from using it by mistake.

Making it inactive (the simplest solution) was not a possibility because the room was indeed available to debate early in the day.

This helps whenever rooms which have classically been designated for the duration of the tournament become more fluid due to rooms constraints. For example, tab, judge call rooms, ballot sort, etc.
