Allow playoffs to be run over a subset of the teams [sf#28] #63

Closed jpschewe closed 10 years ago

At the highschool tournament we ran the playoffs just over 8 teams, rather than over all 22 teams. It's not likely that this will happen often, but it'd be nice if we could accomdate this in the future.

Working on #28.

It looks like we're going to need this for the 2012 state tournament. We will want to be able to run the playoffs over a selected subset of the teams, and then run it over the remaining teams and then probably run the winners against each other.

I think we'd want to handle this by allowing one to run over a subset of teams and make sure to always increment the playoff round for a team when we start a new playoff round. Then we'd run the 2 subsets and then run the winners as a new playoff bracket, although I'm not sure how to seed these teams as they probably should be seeded off the previous playoff bracket.

For the playoff table initialization I think we can create virtual divisions for each set of teams to run the playoffs over as long as we make sure we don't try and compare it against the team's event division.
