Bracketed Heads-Up Structure Management Panel

Overview

The bracketed heads-up structure management panel is your interface for managing the structure of a bracketed heads-up standard tournament. It is found within the following panels:

Panel Content

The panel is divided up into three main sections:

Participants

This panel lists every player who has bought into the tournament. For each player, it displays their seeding, ID, first name, last name, status, wins, losses, round in which they were eliminated and finishing position.

From this panel, you can adjust the seeding used to matchup players when the bracket is created. Note that once the bracket is created, the seedings are locked. Seeding can be adjusted by moving players up/down or simple shuffling the seedings.

Matchup Matrix

This panel displays the number of times each player has matched up against each other player.

At each intersection in the grid, the number indicates the total number of completed and planned matchups for those two players.

Each cell is color-coded to provide a quick visual indicator of where attention is needed for future matchups with green indicating "good coverage", red indicating "attention needed" and a rainbow of colors in between the two. Grey cells indicate that one of the two players for that cell has been eliminated. (The color coding is more for round-robin and sit-and-go tournaments where you potentially have discretion in future matchups...unlike a bracket where the matchups are out of your control once the bracket is generated).

Structure Configuration

The structure configuration panel is the meat of the structure. It contains:
