League Standings & Tournament Brackets, Done Right
Updated 2026-08-08
Standings and brackets are the scoreboard everyone watches. If they’re computed by hand they lag and disagree; computed from results, they’re always right and always live.
Standings that never drift
Compute the table directly from finished-match results with an explicit tie-breaker chain — points, head-to-head, goal difference, goals for — so placement is never disputed.
Publish it live so followers see the table move the moment a result is entered.
Brackets that advance themselves
Seed teams into a single-elimination bracket, pad with byes, and propagate each winner into the next round automatically as results land.
Hold advancement when a required decision or appeal is pending, rather than advancing a team that might be reversed.
