Your store, your room and your staff
How many tables you have, what they are called, and who is allowed to do what.
The room
Tell us how many tables the room seats and the pairings will use them. A store that names its tables — by section, by number, by whatever is written on them — gets those names on the pairing sheet, the wall board and the player’s phone, which is the difference between "table 14" and a player wandering.
A night can never seat more tables than the room has. Where a field would need more, the console says so before you pair rather than after.
Who can do what
Staff hold grants rather than roles: running a night, managing the store, reporting results. Somebody helping out for one evening can be given exactly what tonight needs and nothing else.
A grant can expire. A judge visiting for a weekend gets access for the weekend, which is one fewer thing to remember on Monday.
Everything anybody does is recorded against them and their device. That is not surveillance — it is what lets you answer "who changed that result" without anybody having to remember.
Banning a player
Add a ban from that player’s row on any event’s roster, with a short reason — you will want to remember it later, and "a list of names" six months from now is not a record you can act on.
It stops them signing up online for anything you run from then on. It does not remove them from a roster they are already on, and it does not stop the desk seating them anyway: the same judgment that already lets you seat somebody into an invite-only or private night overrides a ban too. A ban is the default answer, not a lock you cannot open yourself.
It can only reach somebody IDENTIFIED — their own signed-in account, or a person you picked from search rather than a name typed once. A stranger typing a name at the counter is not identifiable as anyone in particular, banned or not, and no software can change that.
Lift it from the Banned Players page whenever the reason no longer applies. Lifted bans stay on the list rather than disappearing — the record of who was excluded, why, and when it was reversed is what a later question needs.
