GameVoya Team Account
Plan the season, not one weekend
Free, and it gates nothing.
The index compares one weekend against another. A team manager is choosing eight of them, against one budget, on one calendar, with registration deadlines that close in a different order from the events themselves. Build the season here and the arithmetic is done for the set rather than for one row — and every listing in it is the same published listing anybody can read without an account.
What the planner does
A season, costed
Add the weekends you are considering and the planner totals the entry fees, converts them to one currency and prints the cost per guaranteed game across the whole season — the same figure the index ranks on, for the set rather than for one row.
The trip around the weekend, not just the entry fee
Every weekend in a season opens a panel with four lines: the airports within 75 miles of the venue, hotels within 15, car rental within 25, somewhere to eat within 5, and a link that drops the venue straight into Uber or Lyft. Each one books on the operator's own site and then holds what you agreed — seats, legs, nights, rooms, days, vehicles, people, rate, confirmation number. The flights and hotels lines price the real thing for that weekend's dates too: seats out of the airport you name and rooms bookable on those exact nights, quoted live by the provider rather than priced by us, with no room held and no seat held. What the season totals is still the figure you came back and recorded. The trip totals beside the entry fees rather than inside them, so the season prints an all-in figure without touching the cost per guaranteed game the index ranks on. We take no booking, no commission and no referral from any of it.
Date collisions, caught early
Two events on the same weekend is the mistake that costs a deposit. Every pair of dates in a season is compared and any overlap is named on the page, including the ones a month apart in the listing order.
The next deadline, not the next event
Registration closes long before a weekend starts, and the order those deadlines fall in is rarely the order the events do. The planner sorts by what closes next and says how long is left.
The grade of the plan
The average GameVoyaGrade across a season, and the weakest listing in it. A season is a portfolio, and one C weekend among seven Bs is worth seeing before the cheque rather than after.
Better weekends than the ones you picked
Every listing in a season is compared with the same-sport alternatives that grade higher, exactly as a listing page does — so the question "is there a better version of this weekend" is answered for the whole plan at once.
The reviews you owe
Mark a weekend played and the planner offers the review form for it, prefilled with the event. That is the only place the two halves of the product meet: the plan is yours, the review goes through the same moderation queue as everybody else’s.
What an account is not
- Not a paywall
- The account is free and there is no paid tier of it. Nothing in the directory is behind it: every grade, every review and every comparison is on the open pages, and the planner reads the same published listings you can already see without signing in.
- Not joined to what you browse
- The pageview table has no account column and must never get one. The key that counts a visitor is hashed with the calendar day so it cannot become a history, and an account that could be joined to one would undo that in a single migration.
- Not a review that counts for more
- A review filed from a season is an ordinary review: same form, same moderation queue, same arithmetic, and nothing records that an account filed it. A signed-in manager cannot move a rating a stranger could not.
- Not sold, and not a mailing list
- No contact detail here is passed to an organizer, a hotel, a registration platform or anybody else. Deadline email is off until you turn it on, and turning it off stops it.
Sport, age group, level, home city and what you will spend per weekend are optional, and the planner works with every one of them blank. They are asked because they are the half of "which tournaments should we research next" that pageviews cannot answer — a page opened a hundred times says nothing about whether the interest was U14 AA or adult rec. Filled in, they also let the planner say which listings are in your bracket rather than which are in your sport. They are never shown to an organizer, never attached to a review, and never sold.
