Dear,
Thank you for your answers! I really like BanksiaGui, but still I need some help to use it.
1. During the tournaments, crosstables shows values that I don't understand:
14.0, 4.5, 3.5 ...what is their meaning?
Thanks a lot for the report. It is a bug since the last version (0.38): I forgot to reset variants thus values of crosstable may be added in when you change from scores and detail. The bug will be fixed for the next release.

But once the tournament is finished, crosstables are perfect...
2. I have tried to edit tournament json, but it isn't easy. With Arena, during a tournament, I can remove / add engines using a graphical IDE and it recalculates all remaining games and updates results automatically, keeping all previous scores so I can simply continue the same tournament when a new engine is available.
Thank you again for this very nice program, I like it and continue to use also without updates
Kind regards,
AlexChess
BSG can help you a bit on that issue:
- You may export the current tournament into a PGN file, then edit that file as you want (it is a pure text file, easy to edit), say, add, remove games, merge with other PGN files, edit results... After all, you can drag & drop the PGN file back into BSG, it can open to view games and create stats for them, including crosstable, ELO... (Fig. 1). The PGN file is much better to store and use for multi-purposes and for a long time than JSON files.
- Use its JSON editor: the editor checks JSON content whenever you edit and inform you if there is a wrong
- You can easily edit the results of games in the tournament (Manually adjudicate game)
You can see the above functions from the popup menu over the Tournament panel as Fig. 2.
