Pick your templates
Start from the club’s timer setup and blind structure. Templates are frozen into the tournament when you create it, so later edits to the library don’t affect this night.
To adjust something for this tournament only, edit it on the tournament itself — the club template is left alone.
Buy-in, rebuys and add-on
Set the amounts you play for. These are numbers that get recorded and displayed so everyone sees the same thing — DealMeIn never receives and never moves money. Playing without stakes? Leave them at zero and play on points.
Rebuys and add-ons affect scoring: both the size of the field and how many bullets each player spent. See How points are calculated.
Prize split
The split is written comma-separated, for example 50, 30, 20.
A fixed split must add up to 100. If it doesn’t, the form won’t save — deliberately, so a mistake isn’t discovered when you’re settling up at the end of the night.
League
If the night belongs to a league, pick it here. Without this the result won’t reach the league standings. The league may also have set a default timer setup and blind structure, which are filled in for you.
Open for sign-ups
When you open the tournament, members see it in the app and can sign up. If your club has the automatic email set up, it goes out at the same time — see Keeping the club posted.
Share the link outside the app and it lands as a sign-up page in the browser, so people can respond without installing anything first.
