It would be awesome if I could track every new event added to the Schedule via RSS!

it'd also be pretty sick if there was a way to export events to a calendar, but it's not a huge deal

But it might not be a bad idea to add a calendar to the site.

Just a warning with that program, you still need some calendar application like sunbird in their example, but you can use iCal and other programs I'm sure so long as it's standardized. It just parses RSS feeds for you so that calendar programs can use the data. Still pretty useful.

Thanks again enigma!! Just one more request.. could you add the time to the feed? Right now we see the event title and the description but IMO the time is more important than the description! For example, it could look like:

[title]ESEA-Invite: bp vs Xensity[/title]

[body]Thursday, 7 February, 2013 ⋅ 11:00 PM EST (NA) ⋅ 05:00 CET (EU) ⋅ 14:00 EST (AU)

Xensity's season might ...

Or however you want to do it.

The publication date is the game time (pubDate). If you have a decent RSS parser, it can convert it to your local timezone.

I don't see anything but the title and the description, I guess it's a limitation of Google Reader?

I guess so. If you look at the XML (view source in any browser) each item is like this:

<item>
    <title>ESEA-Invite: Fully Torqued- vs xensity</title>
    <link>http://teamfortress.tv/schedule/event/127-esea-invite-fully-torqued-vs-xensity</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">http://teamfortress.tv/schedule/event/127-esea-invite-fully-torqued-vs-xensity</guid>
[b]    <pubDate>Wed, 13 Feb 2013 23:00:00 EST</pubDate>[/b]
<description>Fully Torqued- are unable to sit back and rest quite yet. Though they hold the third seed, the divide between them and xensity in the playoff hunt is still small. It will require a few key upsets out of Ma3la's boys and this Wednesday, they need to lay it all on the line against soldier of the season candidate Seagull. Make sure to tune in to TF.TV for all of the action; casters will be announced at a later date.</description>
