 * Hello!
 * I’ve just experienced a bigger problem which forces me to not use the plugin 
   at the moment:
 * Whenever I add the widget to the page, it forces the site to load to death because
   of a redirection-timeout. If I am logged in, the widget displays correctly but
   if an anonymous user wants to visit the page, he gehts this error.
 * It’d be great if this problem could be solved soon, I’ve just started a tournament
   😉
 * I’ll provide as much info as possible; just ask!

 * At first I wasn’t sure what could be causing it, but then I remembered something.
 * Open the editor (Plugins > Editor) and find line 98 in class-challonge-plugin.
   php, it should look like this:
    `wp_logout(); // Ensure logout (clears auth cookies
   for better security)`
 * Try changing:
    `wp_logout();` to: `wp_clear_auth_cookie();`
 * Does this solve the issue?
 * If not, try removing both lines 97 and 98. Does that work?
 * Those lines aren’t necessary almost all of the time.
 * I suspect it’s another plugin that redirects on logout and my plugin is causing
   it to trigger every page load. It was a bad choice on my part to include that
   code in my last release. My apologies.
 * Thank you for this feedback!

 * Yep, this seems to be solved! Thank you very much 😉 I hope this fix gets added
   in the new update soon!
