Additional Notes

• *The tournament statistics ‘Tournament Start’, ‘Tournament End’ and ‘Length’ all use the start and end times of the whole tournament rather than the times which the player actually played in the tournament. We found that some of our users expected this to be the time they actually played in the tournament, we have added these stats so both versions are available to our users. An optional database Cache Rebuild is required to use these new stats, after which they can be manually added to your reports if required.
• There are numerous stat fixes and additions in this release, we advise performing a Cache Rebuild to assure that your database performs optimally when using any of the stats that were altered or added.
