Love that site. Curious if tournament directors use it as s tool to slot teams into the various brackets?
I don't know any tournament directors, but anecdotally I know that for last season's G2006 State Cup the top ranked teams at the time were kept away from each other, and bracket assignment roughly correlated with YSR's rankings. It's more accurate than GotSoccer, that's for sure.
Cal South State/National cup bracketing/seeding is outlined in the rules, definitely do not use it.
I doubt any tournament director would admit to using it even if they looked at it for reference.

I believe this is what you're asking for.

On the original question, yes I think some tournaments use it. It's very good apart from when there's glitches. ie. right now CRL results are not showing even though they were previously.
I too see errors, but he seems to correct them along the way. And if you email him he will adjust.YSR would be accurate if they were able to correctly place teams in the correct age group, didn't have the same team listed multiple times in the same age group and didn't miss a lot of game results. Their algorithm is solid but everything else is not good. YSR is a one man crew and obviously way overwhelming of a job (understandably) for him.
I emailed him stuff 2 or 3 months ago. Still not fixed. He use to fix things. But after he quit the site and then came back there are a ton of errors. Teams from younger and older age group in the same rankings with games for those teams interchanged. It is too big of a project for a one person (non paid) show.I too see errors, but he seems to correct them along the way. And if you email him he will adjust.

Are you trying to correct the mistakes yourself? The system is in place for it. I've used it now and then and usually works. I'm sure you've seen the "Report errors" button on the right.
Wow! That's all I can say.I have emailed the owner of the site directly. 2+ years ago the change would be made in less than 72 hours. All the changes I've requested in the past 6 months never got changed. So I don't request anymore.

Some of the changes have worked for me. Others when I have to include my email don't work as I get a message stating the email address is a problem.I have emailed the owner of the site directly. 2+ years ago the change would be made in less than 72 hours.
