#### December *5, 2025**:-*** Admin Tooling Expansion & Dispute Lifecycle Foundations

### Purpose

To improve platform integrity and transparency through enhanced admin interfaces, dispute lifecycle tracking, and match rule configurability for advanced tournament customization.

***

### Key Highlights

**🛠️ Admin Dashboard Upgrade**

* Replay viewer now supports multi-speed review, move-by-move navigation, and flag annotation.
* Admin audit logs added: records every manual match override, dispute verdict, and flag dismissal.
* Mod actions are now tied to specific user sessions, allowing traceability and rollback if needed.

**⚖️ Dispute Lifecycle Infrastructure (Alpha)**

* Initial schema drafted for user-submitted match disputes: includes timestamps, evidence links, and resolution status.
* Backend supports time-limited appeal windows and admin assignment queues.
* Notifications now sent to users when disputes are received, updated, or closed.

**⚙️ Custom Match Rules Support (Prototype)**

* Tournament config expanded to allow stake minimums, turn timers, win conditions, and rule modifiers.
* Ruleset validation hooks stubbed in both frontend and smart contract layer.
* Admin UI for rule preset creation undergoing UI/UX testing.

**📊 Trust Score Logging & Analytics**

* Trust score model now logs decay over time, admin interventions, and referral quality weighting.
* Decay logic encourages continued fair play post-flag resolution.
* Admin dashboard supports historical trust timeline review per user.

***

### Why It Matters

* Robust dispute handling fosters trust in Tapzi’s fairness model, especially with higher stakes.
* Custom rules open the door for event diversity and community-hosted formats.
* Auditability protects both players and moderators in edge cases.
* Real-time analytics empower proactive moderation and reward honest participation.

***

### Open Issues

* Dispute escalation and reassignment logic not yet automated.
* Custom match rules are not enforced on frontend (validation is backend-only for now).
* Some audit logs not showing correct timezones across admin panel views.

***

### Fixed

* Match replay viewer now properly resumes after pause/seek on mobile.
* Stake validation bug fixed for custom tournaments—now enforced consistently server-side.
* Admin actions now emit system logs for downstream alerting and compliance review.

***

### Next Steps

* Complete frontend enforcement of custom match rules.
* Integrate dispute tracking into user dashboard for transparency.
* Add basic resolution metrics to trust score audit feed.
* Begin work on moderator performance dashboard with verdict review outcomes.
