ChalkySticks Tournaments

The newest part of ChalkySticks is coming soon, Tournaments.

If you're the kind person to host tournaments at your local hall or bar, you'll like this. ChalkySticks Tournaments allows you to setup a tournament event including location, cost, time bracket size, and extra details. Other players using ChalkySticks can find it on the regular app and join the roster beforehand.

The tournament host can manage the time, location, roster, and even the bracket. Anyone interested in following along with the tournament, including the players in it, can view the bracket live on their phones. No longer will everyone bug you "What's the current bracket look like?" They'll be able to see it as soon as you update it.

This video shows how the tournament director tool works. regular users won't see this. Optimized to work well on an iPad and other tablets. (It's a bit slow in the video because of the screen capturing)

Video demo #1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2OOSXWgH4M
Video demo #2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piXK5O_WlPs

It's not quite ready to be used yet; it's still a bit early. Open to feedback / thoughts.
 
Here's a demo/example of how the tournament brackets will look to players or anyone on the outside that wants to follow along.

I think it would be nice if there were lines connecting the players in between the various rounds. Also I think there is too much blank space, either make the fonts bigger or the boxes smaller (to fit more in one screen).

Thank you kindly.

On one of your example tournaments you say that it is double elimination but the video seemed to show a single eliminations bracket. Interested in what your double-elimination bracket looks like.
