3. Registration Area
- I currently have a form that submits basic information over to paypal. (Kida like an advanced paypal button)
-To ensure transaction security all payments are done on the PayPal website and not on the league website. I will have a verified paypal merchant account setup for the site when the domain takes effect.

That right there will kill your site.

lol he sed "Entry Fees"

1) Drop anything to do with your players having to pay or you will FAIL.
2) Get companies to donate a few really nice prizes for top places, and some lesser prizes for the bottom feeders.
3) Drop anything to do with your players having to pay or you will FAIL.
4) Drop anything to do with your players having to pay or you will FAIL.

EDIT: Almost forgot...Drop anything to do with your players having to pay or you will FAIL.

You can't run 3 servers with the same IP and and the same port for all of them.

- Problem Corrected

vague312 · « **Reply #18 on:** October 30, 2008, 11:35:58 PM »

Fixed a small bug with the match leasing tool.
- The match server is back up for public testing/use.
Go figure, had to fix a few more visual bugs with IE 7

I am seeing another visual problem (IE 7) with the leasing tool but i will work on that tomorrow. on another note. Im guessing wax jumped ship so ill be taking the project on by myself for the time being. I do have a few basic goals in mind for the dpl which includes recruitment of additional mods/event administrators and call on the community mappers from time to time. In Basic, i dont plan on abandoning this project any time soon.

p.s.
Props on the server leasing program Sk89q.
