11 months ago This feature would be implemented after issue #237 has been dealt with.
- The join_tournament branch should be updated so the join and quit buttons are only shown when the tournament status is “registration open”. Edge case: However, if a user clicks on these buttons when the status is “registration open” (so the button is there), but when the request is received, the status is different, then an error message should be displayed (“Sorry, the registration period has already closed”).
- The tournament bracket branch should be modified so the brackets are created after the tournament status is “registration close”. However, a way to check the time should be considered (one way to do this is that when the first user accesses the page, if the status is “registration close” and the brackets have not been created, then the create_brackets function is called, so everyone else after that can see the brackets).

Right now, players in a tournament are assigned to brackets right after the tournament is created. However, in a realistic setting, users should be allowed to sign up for the tournament and quit before the registration deadline. It is after the deadline that the brackets are created. We need to create this registration deadline feature accordingly. This change will affect the tournaments_brackets (# 189) and join_tournament (# 190) functionalities.
