single/double elimination knockout tournaments #10169

Open jonium opened 2 years ago

In addition to the Arena and Swiss tournaments it would be very nice to manage single elimination, double (...) knockout tournaments

I thought that the problem of the draws can be solved with an Antichess playoff, where it seems to me that the draw is not expected as a result . Maybe after some blitz and/or bullet playoff for example

Sir, antichess has lots of draws. But if you want a draw playoff, play crazyhouse, where draw chances are like 0.01%
