How is the bracket depth determined?
How is the bracket depth determined?
The system stores the number of rounds (
rondas, 1–5) in the Eliminatoria record. The rounds used are the last N entries from the full round list, so a 2-round bracket would start at Semifinal, a 3-round bracket at Cuartos de Final, and so on.What happens to draw results in a knockout match?
What happens to draw results in a knockout match?
In Fútbol, a draw in an Eliminatoria match requires resolving the tie by other means (e.g., replaying the match). The system records the result and advances whichever team is marked as the winner. Basketball and Pádel do not produce draws.
Eliminatoria con Fase de Grupos
A two-phase format: a group stage followed by a knockout bracket.- Group stage — teams are divided into equal-sized groups (A, B, C, …). Each group runs its own round-robin, with standings tracked separately per group.
- Knockout phase — the top N teams from each group (
n_clasificados_grupo) qualify for an Eliminatoria bracket. The total number of qualifiers must be between 2 and 32.
- The maximum number of teams must be exactly divisible by the number of groups, so every group has the same size.
n_clasificados_grupocannot exceed the number of teams per group.- Total qualifiers:
n_grupos × n_clasificados_grupomust be ≥ 2 and ≤ 32.
How are groups labeled?
How are groups labeled?
Groups are labeled automatically (e.g., A, B, C…). The
grupo field on each Clasificacion record stores this label; the default value is GENERAL for Liga tournaments that have no group stage.Can I change the number of groups after creation?
Can I change the number of groups after creation?
The number of groups and qualifiers per group can be updated from the tournament information page as long as the group stage has not yet produced any points. Once matches have been played and points recorded, the group configuration is effectively locked by the live data.
Scoring rules by sport
Point awards differ by sport. These affect the Puntos column in all standings (Liga and group-stage tables).| Sport | Win | Draw | Loss |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fútbol | 3 pts | 1 pt | 0 pts |
| Baloncesto | 2 pts | — (no draws) | 1 pt |
| Pádel | 1 pt | — (no draws) | 0 pts |
Baloncesto awards 1 point for a loss (not 0). This means every team always gains something from each match, keeping standings differences tighter.
