| Is there any way to set reminders for tourneys besides registering for them? Sometimes I see a tourney I would like to play in but I get busy doing other stuff and when I look up it is 15-30 minutes after it starts if there was a pop up or something that says such and starts at this time. I know in the chat boxes certain tourneys show up but they aren't the ones I want to play. They added the late reg feature and that has helped me for some that I forgot about, but having a feature where you could mark your favorite tourney's and a reminder would come on the screen. There may already be a feature like this that I am not aware of if there is would someone please let me know................ Thanks |

| I usually leave the tournament lobby open as a reminder for me. |

| FYI, Google Calendar supports both email alerts and text message reminders. |

write the info down on a yellow post it and stick it to your computer screen.
I mean, tournaments for the next day and beyond are always in the client, now you have late registration, and some reminders do come up in the chat box. If you can't remember to register after all that, you couldn't have wanted to play that bad. |

Mathman,
All of that relies on being logged onto FT when you need to be reminded and none of it is very helpful if you just want a reminder to register for a specific tourney.
OP,
If it's as soon as 30 min before, just register when you see it instead of right before it starts. That way the table will pop up when it's time to play. |

| Thanks for the ideas guys I do appreciate them. I am not a big fan of google but I think I may give that a shot. Also gonna look into citrus alarm clock. I already have way too much crap on my desk and around my computer so I gotta pass on the sticky notes |
