Come on....

Math, if we get 16, since we obviously ain't getting 32, can we put up reserves if anyone else wants to join?

What do you mean by reserves?

We don't need a reserve list.

Math can easily create a bracket that has byes to include anyone who wants to play.

Yep. If we have latecomers, they may set the tournament back a day or so, but i doubt anyone will show up late and not be here for the actual thing

I am curious, though - if you make a bracket including byes, how would you establish the seeding?

It could be random.
It could be done in order of sign up, giving an edge to the players who came early.
It could be based on ratings. Highest rating is the #1 seed, so on. L1s, since they don't have ratings, could use gold medals as a tiebreaker, or something.

I like the last one.

Also, I am excited for this to start! :P

I'm honestly just thinking of assigning numbers to everyone, and doing a RNG to fill in the bracket

That is likely the most fair way to do it. 8-)
