Turbo Tourney Features
Overview
While there are many features of Turbo Tourney, we have tried to
highlight some of the most useful features below. The best way to
experience Turbo Tourney is to download
the demo version and try it yourself.
Custom Scoring Options
You have many scoring options that were never available before because
the amount of effort requred to calculate them manually would be
overwhelming. Turbo Tourney offers any combination of Standard,
Seed and Underdog scoring.
Various Entry Methods
With Turbo Tourney you can capture player picks either manually
on paper (the old fashion way) or via pick disk, e-mail, network,
text files or over the web.
Tie Breaker Options
Tie Breakers are ways that you want to break ties should more than
one person have the same number of total points. Turbo Tourney offers
3 different levels of tie breakers and 8 different methods of breaking
ties.
Build Your Own Web Site

(NOTE:
You must have your own web space on the internet to post your files
as the software only generates the files, we do not host your site.
Most ISP's provide their users with personal web space so please
check with them for assistance on posting your files to your site.)

standings information, etc. can be saved to your pool file AND to a database that you can
then use to write your own reporting or anything else you might want to do. Included are script files for mySQL and SQL Server
and a template database for Microsoft Access.
