Default Online Tourneys - Site design, usability and features

Hi

I was hoping to get some feedback on Online Tourneys.

The purpose of the site is to allow users to search for tournaments using their various criteria and allow site owners to list their private freerolls and buyins.

Here is a basic rundown on the features:

Searching:
Allows user to search two different categories by eleven different =
criteria.
Allows "Quick Search" to search by three different criteria on any =
page.


Adding:
Allows users to submit upcoming tournaments to be posted on site.
If user is unregistered, tournaments must be approved by an admin.


Users:
Users can register on the site for free.
Users must activate account via email before logging in.
Registered users can submit tournaments directly, without having the admin approving them.
Registered users can send and receive private messages from other
users.
Registered users can create a basic profile of themselves.
Registered users can fill out a search form detailing tournaments they =
would like to be notified about. If a tournament fitting their details
is submitted, they will receive an email notification.
Registered users can change their email address and password.
Registered users can view tournaments they've recently submitted.
Registered users can view a list of members, view members profiles, and
send PMs to other members.


Calendar:
Users can view a calendar detailing tournaments available by month.
Users can change the month they're viewing.

Tournaments:
Users can view tournaments by searching for them or viewing tournament
listings.
Listings are sorted by date and category.
Upon clicking a tournament, users can view the details and click a link to take them to the tournament.

RSS:
Users can subscribe to RSS feeds for each category of tournament.
Feeds list the next 20 tournaments for each category.

3 things are being added - A field for the tournament name, a field for passwords (The site owner can set it so users have to visit their site to receive the password) and the title of the tournament pages will include the tournament details, i.e. tournament name, room etc. for SEO


Feedback and suggestions would be great

Thanks
