Run the Tournament
Once inside the tournament dashboard, the left sidebar gives you access to every management section. Work through them in order as the event progresses:Competidores (Participants)
Review the registered competitor list, add late registrations, or remove withdrawn participants. Edit category assignments at any time before results are entered.Staffing
Assign operational roles to competitors on a per-category basis. Available roles are Judge, Runner, and Scrambler. Staff assignments are visible to the groups engine so you can keep roles and competition slots separated.Grupos (Groups)
Automatically divide competitors into competition groups for each round. The groups engine distributes competitors and assigns the configured staff members. Groups can be regenerated until you are satisfied with the layout.Scrambles
Generate official scramble sequences for each group and round using the integrated csTimer engine. Scrambles are produced entirely in-browser — no external website visit is required. Generated scrambles are stored in IndexedDB alongside the tournament record.Resultados (Results)
Enter individual solve times for each competitor in each round. The app automatically:
- Applies +2 (+2 second) or DNF (Did Not Finish) penalties when flagged.
- Calculates ao5 or ao3 averages for WCA-format rounds.
- Advances qualifying competitors to the next round based on the configured cutoff.
- Records match wins and advances bracket winners for Red Bull-format rounds.
