Cobblemon Tournament System FREE v1.0

---

---

The Cobblemon Tournament System is a professional tournament platform built specifically for Cobblemon servers. It replaces the chaos of managing tournaments manually on Discord — no spreadsheets, no human error, no headaches.

With a single system, you manage registrations, brackets, matches and rankings automatically — all through a modern, responsive interface.

---

• Save hours of work — Stop managing tournaments by hand. The system handles everything automatically.
• Real engagement — The ELO ranking keeps players motivated to come back and compete.
• Professional look — Modern dark-theme interface that impresses from the very first login.
• Zero upfront cost — Set it up, use it, and scale it — completely free.
• Fully functional — This is not a demo or a trial. It is the complete system, ready for production.

---

• Tournament Engine — Full lifecycle: Draft → Registration → Ongoing → Completed.
• Single Elimination Brackets — Auto-generated with seeding, BYE handling, and round progression.
• ELO Ranking System — Players start at 1000 ELO, updated automatically after every match.
• Team Builder — Build teams manually or instantly import from a Showdown export.
• Player Profiles — Track win/loss history and full battle statistics.
• Full Admin Dashboard — Manage users, tournaments, rules and settings with ease.
• Modern Interface — Built with Next.js and React 19. Responsive with dark theme.
• Production-Grade Security — HttpOnly JWT, bcrypt, full TypeScript codebase and validated REST APIs.

---

1. DRAFT — The admin creates the tournament, sets rules, format and dates.
2. REGISTRATION — Players sign up. The admin approves or rejects participants.
3. ONGOING — Brackets are generated automatically. Matches advance as results are submitted.
4. COMPLETED — A winner is declared, stats are recorded, and ELO is updated for everyone.

Is this really free? Are there any hidden costs?
Yes, 100% free. No activation fee, no subscription, no tricks. Download it, install it, use it.

Do I need to know how to code to install it?
You don't need to be a developer, but you'll need access to a Linux VPS and be comfortable running basic terminal commands. The included tutorial covers everything step by step.

Does it work on shared hosting (e.g. Hostinger)?
No. The system requires a VPS or dedicated server. Shared hosting does not support Node.js and PM2.

Does the system connect directly to the Minecraft server?
The system is a standalone web application. Match results are submitted manually through the dashboard by admins or players — no direct in-game integration in the FREE version.

Can I upgrade to PRO later without losing my data?
Yes. The upgrade is fully compatible — your tournaments, players and ELO history are all preserved.
