Hi.

It'd be very nice to have an export link for the tournament calendar, so that I can schedule ahead for my favorite games.

Google Calendar - and as far as I know, some other calendar apps - accept such links and show the content next to other events so that you can integrate all your plannings into one app.

Thanks in advance, and wondeful website!

Hi @hadizadeh0ali that's an interesting idea, and one we'll make a note of!

Thanks @statmatt. I thought a bit more about it; maybe these details could help:

> I'd personally like to follow draughts events only (until I finally learn how to play chess better than a monkey), so if there's going to be one calendar for-them-all, I'd personally get a headache with all those events cramped together in my weekly schedule. So, it'd be neat to keep different game-types separated at least.

> However, we have Medleys, which could smash up a lot of game-types together. Maybe some people would like to join them even when they're not good at all the games (I'm new to the site, and I don't know if that's common strategy). So, now, YOU would get a headache with properly separating the calendars.

> My suggestion is automatically building all those calendars (e.g., International only, English+Brazilian, all Draughts, all Draughts other than English, Draughts and Medleys containing them, Draughts and Chess, Draughts and Go, etc.). Then, whenever someone creates an event and lists out the games in the event, some system should automagically add them to all relevant calendars. Finally, as a cherry on top, maybe we could have an "export calendar" page on the website, where each user finds a checklist of all games and could tick them manually (or with simple filters), and then the system would give the user the corresponding calendar link - and whenever the user wants to change course, they could simply ask for another link via the same process.

Sorry for the tech-rant; thought maybe it'd help in the brainstorming.

Best, Ali
