Tournament bracket maker

Single elimination is the shortest: teams minus one games, and half the teams are done after their first game. Double elimination gives every team a second chance, at about twice the games. A round robin is the kindest for young players: every team plays every other once, so a 5-team round robin is 10 games and nobody goes home after one.

With fewer teams than a full bracket, the top seeds get byes in the first round. A random draw shuffles who stands where. Ties in a round robin are shown, not broken; how your league breaks them is up to it. Before the tournament, a lineup keeps playing time equal inside each game.
