During the online phase of the tournament, there are no restrictions in regards to what add-ons players can use. For the live event, there are restrictions in place limiting players to the default UI and custom macros.

It's not currently possible to post using your arena character. We are looking into various posting options for arena tournement players for the future, however.

Is the armory available for the tournament realms at this time?
It is not currently on the Armory, but we do plan on adding it. Currently the Arena Tournament is in the practice phase, but once we are a little ways into the actual qualifiers you can expect the data you see on regular realms (characters, teams, ladders, etc.) to show up on the Armory.

We are currently looking into the reason behind the long queue times, and will report back as soon as we get more information. We are actively testing the queues, and should have more information within a few hours.
