Tournament System

[Chris-Bitler]

Description

The tournament system allows the organizers of the site to set up and run tournaments that the users or teams of users on the site can sign up for. An organizer can specify the start time and date for the tournament, which will automatically cut off entries and generate a bracket. Event organizers can then administer the tournament from the tournament's page, using an easy system to specify the outcome of the current matchup in the bracket.

Also, although this is a stretch goal for this site, it should be possible to add a url for a twitch stream for the tournament.

From the user side of the site, they will see the current bracket after searching the tournaments, the current matchup, and the next matchup, and the twitch stream if there is one.

If the tournament is a team tournament, only team leaders should be able to sign up for it and leave the tournament.
