Staff
Add co-organisers to help run your event, and a ringer for odd player counts.
Setup > Staff is where you add co-organisers to help run the event, and a ringer for odd player counts. Changes save straight away.
Co-organisers
Co-organisers have the same rights as you, including publishing and deleting the event, so only add people you trust. One is handy so someone can keep things moving while you are playing or busy at the venue.
- In Add Co-Organizer, type at least 2 characters of their name, email or nickname.
- Click the add button next to their name.
They need an Old World Rankings account first. If a co-organiser is the event's payment recipient, change the recipient on Dates & Payment before you remove them.
Ringer
In a singles event with an odd number of players, a ringer plays instead of someone getting a bye. Each round they play the lowest-ranked player who has not faced them yet. The ringer earns no ranking points, never appears on the podium, and does not pay an entry fee by default.
- Click Add Ringer.
- Search for the person under Player (you can create them if they are not on OWR yet) and choose their Faction.
- Click Add Ringer.
There is one ringer per event, usually an organiser or a volunteer.
