Introduction
The purpose of the Asura Tournament System is to make it easier for administrators and tournament hosts in the Asura Community to host and manage tournaments. Our system allows administrators to view created tournaments, create new tournaments and edit or manage tournaments. The user interface at asura.feal.no is intended to provide sufficient guidance for understanding how to use the system, however, if there are questions or concerns; see the “Use the Web Application” section of this manual. We hope the manual is clear and informative and thank you for using our product.
User Access Levels
There are three user access levels to the Asura Tournament System. These are users, administrators and managers. Users only have the ability to view tournament brackets and results and are intended to be the participants of the tournament. Administrators are intended to be the tournament hosts and have access to close to the full functionality of the system. They can create, view, manage and edit tournaments. They can also manage teams and players and select winners of tournament matches. Managers have the same access as administrators. In addition, they can create new and remove old administrators.
