I'd like to suggest a feature which could be quite useful when you create a new tournament: "Variant = from position".
Why? there are many chess clubs with coaches, and sometimes students need to practice middlegame positions (Say a position with an isolated Queen Pawn, or where a diagonal is particularly weak, or one side controls a file, etc) or endgame positions (say a R + 4 Pawns vs R + 3 Pawns where one side has a pawn on the other flank).
Ideallly the position could change for every round, but this is not essential (I'm sure it would demand a lot more coding!), and besides, quite often it will be a "tournament" (or practice session) which will only needs to last 1 game.
Another benefit is that at present, an ECO code for a tournament with a fixed opening is somewhat limited: Nowadays most people prepare opening variations from move 7, 10, 15, 20 or even 30...
