NewTon DC Tournament Manager Version 4.2.5 is a landing page update for Docker deployments. No changes to tournament functionality.
This release contains no breaking changes and is a drop-in replacement for v4.2.4.
Changes
Landing Page
Hero image optimised: Switched from newton-cartoon.png (2.1MB) to newton-cartoon.jpg (164KB) — 13× smaller with no visible quality loss
OG & Twitter Card image: Changed to newton-poster-throw.jpg for cleaner, more readable link previews on WhatsApp, Slack, and social media
Lane & Referee Management card: Rewritten to accurately describe the conflict detection system — players officiating a match are blocked from playing until free, players in a live match are excluded from referee selection, and suggestions prioritise recent losers, winners, and referee history
Google Search Console: Site verification meta tag added
Developer Console
Bracket Editor: New placeholder entry added (amber, after Toggle Read-Only) — shows an "upcoming feature / here be dragons" message. Documented in Docs/PARKING-LOT.md with full implementation plan for a future release.
