Google docs

[Dukasaur]

So how many people have used Google docs to maintain tournament spreadsheets, and what are your experiences like, good or bad?

Good
-no file/image uploading req

Bad
-Excel is much better (easier for me to use)

I use it for my 25th tourney. I made it in excel and uploaded it to google docs. It works great cause excel is easier, but you can use google docs to give a link for everyone to keep up to date!

I use goold old Excel, and IMHO it's a lot more better.

That would be neat!
Also, to help with this for anyone that didn't know, it is indeed possible to upload files as attachments to your posts in the Create/Join a Tournament Forum. I'm sure it supports .xl files, but there may have been a block on .xls (this was a while back, don't know if it's fixed yet). For details on how to upload an attachment, here is a guide:

Hope this helped someone!

I've successfully uploaded Excel sheets, but I got worried if there was an upload limit and I was going to run out, that's the main reason I've been considering switching to Google docs.
