Parameter definitions

• seed-width – [OPTIONAL] sets the width of the seed fields (25 by default).
• team-width – [OPTIONAL] sets the width of the team name fields (125 by default).
• score-width – [OPTIONAL] sets the width of the score fields (20 by default).
• RD1, RD2, RD3 – [OPTIONAL] The names of each round. Defaults are "Quarterfinals", "Semifinals", and "Finals", respectively.
• group1, group2 – [OPTIONAL] The name of the first and second of two groups of four first-round teams, respectively.
• group3 – [OPTIONAL] Name to be placed in the middle of the first round column (between the second and third of four groups of two second-round teams). It's not clear what this could be used for (or whether it is actually used anywhere).

  • n is the round number (1–3)
  • xxxx is one of seed, team, or score
  • t is the position within the round, counting from top to bottom (1–8)

There are 8 first-round (quarterfinals) teams, 4 second-round (semifinals) teams, and 2 third-round (finals) teams.
