24 players. 48 teams. One strong side, one wildcard each — combined points decide it. Banker: Matt.
The draw is reproducible: the same seed always produces the same result. Pick a seed nobody can rig — total goals on opening day, a Lotto number, or just do it live on a call. Then anyone can type the seed in and confirm it wasn't fiddled. (Solves the 4-years-ago problem.)
Tip: agree the seed in the group chat before running it, so everyone knows it was honest.
One name per line. Needs 24 to hand out all teams cleanly. Edit if someone drops out, then re-run the draw.
All 12 groups with their real fixtures. Type each scoreline as games finish — standings, win/draw points and goal tallies update automatically and feed straight into the scoreboard. Group stage runs 11–27 June.
▮ Green = top two (auto-qualify) · ▮ Gold = 3rd (8 best 3rd-placed teams also advance to the Round of 32).
Once the bracket is set, record each knockout match here: pick the round and the two teams, enter the score (and who won on penalties if drawn). The winner is advanced automatically, so each team's furthest stage — and its points — stays correct without you tracking the bracket by hand.
Score = your strong team + your wildcard team, both updating live from the results you record. Ties break on combined goals scored.
Both your teams earn points and they add together. Scoring is cumulative — a team banks points each round it survives, so a deep wildcard run can win you the whole thing.

Bonuses stack: a team that reaches the semis keeps its pool points + R32 + R16 + quarters, then adds the semi bonus. The big jumps sit on the quarters, semis and final — the rounds worth sweating over. Tie on points? Whoever's two teams scored more goals wins; still level, split it.
Spread across the top finishers so nobody checks out early, plus a wildcard prize to keep the second-team chase alive.
"Best wildcard" = the highest-scoring tier-2 (rank 25–48) team in the pool.
