Shortcode: )iq
Initialses qualifiers above but treats qualifiers from each pool as a separate event. Useful for running 2 or more single-pool events on the same sheet.
Select several teams in adjacent rows before running. Chartroom initialises Lives play in columns to the right.

If qualification policy is by pool rank the top 3 in each pool qualify with the top-ranked seeded into round 2, i.e. receives a bye, and plays the winner of the round 1 game between a second and third-ranked qualifier.
If qualification policy is by overall rank, i.e. 6, 12, 24, 48 ... , then the top third will receive a seeded bye and the lower two thirds will play off in round 1.
Playing order is random by default, however a pre-determined order for first, second, and third qualifiers can be specified if desired. e.g.
{
"livesPolicy": {
"seededByesOrder": [
[1, 3, 2, 4],
[2, 4, 1, 3],
[4, 2, 3, 1]
]
}
}Will initialise a Plate event for non-qualifiers, then a Main event for qualifiers.

You can also have 2 games tables side by side handling half of the game each.
To get random scores enter r alongside end 1.
Select the whole game table and run. Reverses the heading and scores for each end.
If the winner of the final game is in position 2, click any cell on that row and run.
