Bracketed multi-game series. Single-elim, double-elim, round-robin. 4 to 32 teams. Each match runs as its own game in any mode you want, and the bracket auto-advances the second a match ends.

Captured from a live game
From seeding to trophy
Drop in your teams. 4, 8, 16, 32. Manually rank them or let the bracket randomize. Persistent team identities stick across every match.
Pick a format: single-elim, double-elim with a losers bracket, or round-robin where every team plays every team. Bracket renders. Public display URL drops in your hand.
Trivia round, Brainpardy duel, Lightning showdown, whatever. Each match is a real Brainflood game with the team identities pre-loaded.
Final scores report back. Winner moves up. Public display flips. Tiebreaker rules (W/L, then point-diff, then points-for) handle close calls without a host argument.
Final round, trophy graphic on the display, bragging rights for a season. Re-seed the same teams next quarter and run it again.
What makes it shine
A tournament turns a bracket into an event with a real arc, from seeding to trophy. Running a whole season, not just one bracket? That is what Leagues are for.
"The Brainiacs" stays "The Brainiacs" across every match. Same colors, same logo, same regulars. Records build over weeks.
Pick the format, pick the team count, you're done. Single-elim, double-elim with losers bracket, full round-robin. We handle byes and odd-team padding.
Big-screen display URL. Live matches glow. Completed matches show scores. Walk-ins can see exactly where the league stands at a glance.
Match wraps. Winner pops up to the next slot. No manual bracket bookkeeping, no pen-and-paper sheet pinned to the wall.
Round-robin gets messy with three teams at 4-1. Brainflood resolves with W/L → head-to-head → point-differential → points-for. No spreadsheet, no debate.
Round 1 is classic trivia. Quarters are Brainpardy. Final is Lightning. Mix modes across rounds for variety. Same bracket, different formats.
A tournament round is just an Activity inside an Event. So a tournament night can also include a karaoke set, a slideshow, and a poll on the same calendar slot. The venue projector cycles bracket display, leaderboard, and karaoke queue from one URL. No second laptop, no second host.
Where it works
Tournaments need a returning crowd. They reward venues that already have a Tuesday trivia night and want to take it up a notch.
