You can always pause the game, change the payout settings and then resume again. But I don't think players would like to see this changed during the game though. The players that are behind, sure, but the ones on top will feel cheated.

I was thinking this same thing.
I run charity tournaments, and I add a paying position for every additional 10th player, (past 30); as this happens quite often, I'd like to be able to expand the payouts without stopping the clock, or rushing during a break.
Also, in busy tournaments, it would be handy to have more than one admin system; allowing more "cashiers" to check people in.
Additional admins would also allow for supervisors to remove players and handle re-buys (as opposed to re-entries) and add-ons at the tables.
Some one else's suggestion of a pin for additional admin's seemed a good idea.
Thanks for a what seems a great app, I'm anxious to test it!

Thanks for this feedback, that's really appreciated!
I'll have to think about this; I like the suggestion of having a payout scheme in function of the number of participants... but which scheme or with what options is something I will need to think through, I can imagine lots of variants.
Additional admins is also a good idea, but only with the controls on the timer view and not the setup of the tournament, that is certainly something I can look into.
