16 brackets double elimination brackets dont seed winner brackets players to different subtrees. Resulting in people meeting same oppononents they already played against in the winners bracket.

  Hey Ilkka!

  How are you?

  As the bracket manager, you may simply change who plays vs. who in the losers bracket:

  Oh ok. Apparently so.

  But still by default players should be automatically seeded into reversed subtrees. If people want it like to have it as it is. It should be customized property. Or selectable when you create a bracket. Because it is not the correct way to build the bracket.

  I agree. That's a great feedback. We'll change it.

  Thanks!

  It is still not changed. I just tested it today with a brand new 16 player bracket and they are still seeded wrong in the first round of the losers bracket. Causing people to play against each other again n case of Player 1 vs Player 2: Player 1 winning first match but losing second. And Player 2 losing first and winning first losers bracket game.

   Can you please change it someday? I can manage with the manual changing but still... it's manual.

  It's definitely something we'll handle in the future, but at the moment our table is full with a list of features we're constantly adding (custom brackets is one of them 🙂).
