Hosting a tournament

tourney runs an osu! tournament in one place: registration, teams, qualifiers, the bracket, the schedule and results.

Sign in with osu!, then pick Host a tournament. Make a lineage (the series, like "Evergreen Cup") and its first edition (one year of it). Each account can run one edition at a time. Ask on the Discord server to become a verified host, which raises that to 10.

The lineage owner can add admins by osu! ID. Admins can change every edition of the lineage; only the owner can hand the lineage to someone else.

An edition moves forward through its phases and can skip the ones it doesn't use:

1. Setup. Its checklist shows what's missing before registration can open.
2. Registration. Players (or team captains) register between the opening and closing times you set.
3. Qualifiers, if the edition has them.
4. Bracket. The main bracket is played.
5. Done.

The edition's settings have a site option:

• Auto shows the public page once the edition leaves setup.
• Hidden shows it only to the lineage's owner and admins. Everyone else gets "not found".
• Live shows it right away, even in setup.

A change shows on the next page load.

Add your own questions to the form (text, long text, a number, a link, a checkbox, one choice or several), and limit who may register by rank, country or region. Each registration keeps a snapshot of the player's osu! username, rank and country from the moment they registered; it never refreshes.

On the registrations page, approve, waitlist or reject players, up to 200 at once. Approving a solo player or a team's captain makes their team.

Set the bracket's size and format (single or double elimination, a third place match, a grand final reset) and the rounds follow. For each round you can set its name, best of, a window for match times, and its pool from pools.haruhime.moe.

A round's pool stays off the public page until you tick revealed. That only hides tourney's link: whether the pool itself is public is set on pools.haruhime.moe.

Type qualifier scores in, or fill them from a lobby's mp link (you see a preview first and save it yourself). Then seed from the qualifiers, at random from a seed number, or by hand, and make the bracket.

The bracket can be made again until the first result is saved.

Set each match's time by hand, or ask for suggestions: tourney looks at both teams' availability inside the round's window and the higher seed's players break ties. Fill round gives every untimed match in a round its best suggestion. Times are stored in UTC and everyone sees them in their own time zone.

See Entering results.

The home page lists every lineage you run, with what needs you in each edition: registrations to review, matches without a time, and results overdue.
