Getting started

From empty page to published event in five steps.

1. Step 1

   Create the event

   Name it, pick the game, set rounds and table sizes, choose Swiss or round-robin. An optional bilingual description (English + Spanish) travels with every share preview. Creating it takes seconds — no account needed.

2. Step 2

   Load the roster

   Add players one by one or paste a whole list. Running groups (‘keys’)? Tag each player with a pool — A, B, C… or custom labels — or let auto-split balance everyone in one shot.

3. Step 3

   Tune scoring & access

   Scoring rules are configurable per event. Add an organizer passcode so only you pair rounds and confirm scores; hand staff devices a staff code and they can only run the judge-call queue.

4. Step 4

   Run the rounds

   Pair, print table slips and QR posters, then confirm each table’s score. Standings, tiebreakers and the round timer update everywhere the moment you confirm — nothing advances silently.

5. Step 5

   Publish & share

   Anyone with the event code or a QR sees the live venue screen — TV, phones, even embedded on a club site. Share links, the recap card and per-pool standings keep everybody posted until the podium.
