This app is EXACTLY what I need. But I need to be able to track more than just tournaments, I also need to track individual games (so, one game played between two players). But this app *only* offers tournament games, so a minimum of three players are required to keep track of scores. Adding a feature that allowed for the tracking of an individual game and not a whole tournament set would be perfect.
