Create / Generate Groups

There are two ways to create groups: automatically or manually. Both processes begin by clicking the 'Add Group' button located in the top right corner.

Creating a group manually means you set up the format and names, then manually add teams to each group by clicking 'Add Team' and selecting the team from the list. With automatic generation, teams are distributed based on entry sorting and the identified format and algorithm type (Standard or Fixed).

Standard

This algorithm will distribute seeds in each group, while all other participants will be randomized.

Fixed

This algorithm will distribute all teams based on sorting in a 'zig-zag' format. The easiest way to explain this is with an example:

Group 1	Group 2	Group 3	Group 4
Seed 1	Seed 2	Seed 3	Seed 4
Seed 8	Seed 7	Seed 6	Seed 5
Seed 9	Seed 10	Seed 11	Seed 12
Seed 16	Seed 15	Seed 14	Seed 13

Note that when adding a group, you can specify how many groups you want to create at once and choose between numeric or alphabetic names. If you also want to display the full list of matches under the group, make sure to enable the checkbox with the corresponding name.
