• Assumed that if the join period was left blank that it would close immediately and only
  invited people would be a part of the tournament.
• Assumed that if the join period was left blank that it would close immediately and only invited people would be a part of the tournament.
• Wanted some sort of confirmation that they had completed creating a tournament

• There was no “JOIN“ button on the tournament info. page, which led to confusion about how to join a tournament.
• Did not think that the separation between your tournaments and global tournaments was necessary for the search results. Suggested just have all results on one page.

• User was confused about where they should click to update score, on tournament image/where in the round robin image vs. on the expanding sidebar.
• Tried to click on the names visible in the tournament image.
• Felt that it seemed odd to have both a score and winner/loser option.

• User was confused about where they needed to go to manage tournament details (i.e. boot a player, make a player an admin)
• Was not sure if the player names were clickable.
• Wanted feedback as to whether or not their action was completed. (i.e. if player was actually booted or made an admin)

•  No issue here

• User felt that the bi-panel homepage setup was not needed.  However, also mentioned that this could be due to the tasks given, since most of them did not require interaction with the notifications half of the homepage.

•  Added a "Create" button - would be replaced with the text "Created" once clicked
• Initially grayed out "Close Join Period" button until tournament was created
• Gave the Tournaments panel on homepage more real estate

•  Added the two panel search results - top panel for your tournaments, bottom panel for all tournaments
• Clicking the tournament from search results would bring user to tournament info page instead of immediately prompting the user to join the tournament
• Clicking on join from tournament info page would pop up the password prompt

•  Changed the order of the "winner" radio buttons and "score" text boxes
• Added "optional" next to the score column
• Added "Reject" button onto the notification
• Removed ability to close the notification without accepting or rejecting the request

•  Added checkboxes to the names
• Color coded the names
• Animate side bar to show when page loads.  Disappears immediately after

•  No changes

User 1

•  Confused with their name vs. tournament name on form
• confused with friends vs. email

• Everything went smoothly

•  Tried to open sidebar and click on player's name to update score
• Didn't fill in score
• Didn't notice the notification from opponent to approve score

•  Noticed the sidebar animation, went straight there

•  Everything went smoothly

• Thought logout symbol was a power button
• Suggested to switch location of icons on top bar
• Was confused what the friends button did

User 2

•  Confused with their name vs tournament name on form
• Thought friend name and emails corresponded with each other 
• Suggested to change "Close join period" button to "Start Tournament"

•  Suggested to put "Join" button on top of page in case description was very long, might not know there is a "Join" button if not immediately visible

•  Ignored notification
• Suggested a visible state change after the score was sent for approval

•  Wondered why side bar would ever disappear if there's space for it
• Tried to click name in bracket to boot/make manager - supposed to go to side bar

•  No issues

• Thought logout button would close the application

User 3

•  Also entered their own name instead of tournament name
• Didn't know what password box was for, skipped it because noticed it wasn't required
• Wondered why the join period was grayed out at first
• Suggested put the invited members' names in the members box after invitations were sent

• Initially confused what the search bar at top did - would it search his tournaments or all tournaments
• Confused with the layout of the search results page - wasn't consistent with other sites he used.  Said he doesn't read all the labels as a heavy internet user

•  Only user in this iteration to notice notification message
• Didn't know what tournament the match was for, didn't want to approve it because he didn't know
• Didn't know which box in the round-robin grid to press first (he could have done either)

•  Suggested having some color-coded key to explain what the colors for each player meant. 
• He did accurately guess what each color was

• No issues

• Same issues - power button, left-right layout of top icons
