Round-robin tournament FAQ
How many games are in a 6-player round robin?
Fifteen. The formula is 6 × 5 ÷ 2, and the schedule can be organized into five rounds of three matches.
Does everyone play everyone in a round robin?
Yes. In a single round robin, every pair meets exactly once.
What happens with an odd number of players?
One player has a bye in each round. The generator rotates the bye so the remaining players still meet once.
Is the round robin tournament workflow free?
The 4–8 player preview needs no account. A live round robin costs one paid use, including scores, standings and venues.
Does AutoBracketMaker create a double round robin?
Not currently. A double round robin has each pair meet twice and requires n × (n − 1) matches. The current preview and live workflow create a single round robin.
