Three Features for a More

Equitable Tournament by Kevon Haughton 1

Adding Pronouns to Your Profile

Adding pronouns to your profile is a great way to let other competitors and judges know how you would like to be identified. You can’t know someone’s pronouns simply by looking at them, so adding pronouns to your profile gives others the opportunity to interact with you and also respect your gender identity. Pronouns are shared in text and email notifications that go out to participants in each round, and this gives everyone a chance to familiarize themselves with pronouns before the round begins.

After logging into Tabroom.com, click on your tournament on the right side of the screen. The option can be set by navigating to Settings » Judges: Select the appropriate event under Judge Categories on the right.

Click the Ratings tab.

Log in to Tabroom.com.

Enabling Diversity-Enhancing Judging

Tabroom.com offers tournament directors an option for judges to identify as diversity enhancing. Enabling this feature is not required to run your tournament, but will allow you to intentionally diversify your judging panels. Diversity-enhancing judging is enabled for whole judge categories.

Follow the steps below to add pronouns to your Tabroom.com profile.
