Ok, this would be probably a better example. Abd it really would, also help you if you ended your HTML tags, too!

mob/verb
 Tournament
  set category = "Channels"
  switch(alert("Host a tournament?","Tournament","Yeah!","I'll pass.."))
  
  if("Yeah!")
   var/tname = input("What name for your Tournament?","Tournament") as null|text
   if(!tname)
    src << "Please, use an actual name!"
    return
   var/players = input("How, many players do you want to compete?","Tournament") as null|num
   if(!players)
    return
   if(players > 8)
    src << "Only <b>8</b> players can compete!"
    return
   world << "<font color=red>WORLD EVENT!: [src] is hosting <b>[tname]</b> and only <i>[players] Players</i>  can compete!</font>" //Please, end all HTML tags!!

I prefer not using usr all the time. And this is also a verb not a mob or obj so it would'nt say like 'Sword' is hosting a tournament.

Here also made it an admin verb so like you and other Admins in the game can use it.

mob/Admin
    verb
        Tournament()
            //set category = "Tournament"
            switch(input("Host a tournament?","Tournament") in list ("Yes","No"))
                if("Yes")
                    var/tname = input("What name for your tournament","Tournament") as null|text
                    if(!tname)  {src << "Please, use an actual name!";return tname}
                    var/players = input("How, many players do you want to compete?","Tournament") as null|num
                    if(!players) {src<<"No player amount entered";return players}
                    else if(players > 8) {src<<"Upto an amount of 8 players can compete!";return players}
                    world << "<font color=red>WORLD EVENT!: [src] is hosting <b>[tname]</b> and only <i>[players] Players</i>  can compete!</font>"
                else if ("No") return 0

Oh man dude... I could make a fully automated bug free tournament SO much better than the examples I see below... But unfortunately for you Im too busy right now and dont want to either... I might do it later though so ya might want to check back, or not, or I might not come back, or I could kill you, either one, you dont really have a choice, its my universe and you have no control.

[EDIT] Im going to be rich very soon...
