## Frequently Asked Questions

### How many rounds are in a 32 team bracket?

Five. The round of 32, the round of 16, the quarter-finals, the semi-finals, and the final.

### How many matches does a 32 team tournament need?

Thirty-one. Every contestant except the champion loses exactly once, so a 32 entry bracket always runs thirty-one matches.

### What if I only have 20 or 25 teams?

Paste however many you have. The bracket pads out to 32 slots and hands byes to the extra spots, so a 20 or 25 entry list still runs a clean five round draw.

### Can I seed the field instead of randomizing it?

Yes. Switch to seeded mode and the first team is paired against the last, the way a real conference or league bracket is set, or drag teams into a manual order.

### Will a 32 team bracket fit on screen?

The bracket scales to fit the window automatically, so all five rounds stay visible on a laptop and scroll horizontally on a phone.
