Questions
How does the bracket handle byes?
When the number of entrants is not 4, 8, 16 or 32, the bracket grows to the next size and the top seeds get byes, so they go straight to the next round. With 6 names you get an 8 bracket where seeds 1 and 2 have a bye.
How do I pick a winner?
Click the name that won. It moves to the next round and the line to it turns dark. Click it again to undo, or press Z to take back the last result.
Can it pick winners at random?
Yes. Press Decide the next match at random, or Space, and the next open match is decided with your browser's secure random numbers. Both sides have the same chance.
How many entrants can a bracket have?
From 2 to 32. The bracket has 4, 8, 16 or 32 slots, picked from the number of names. On stream a 32 bracket splits into two halves that meet at the final, so every name stays readable.
