For organizers

Your Wizard tournament. Minus the paperwork.

You set up the tournament, players sign up by QR code, and every table keeps score on one phone. The standings run live on the TV. And you finally get to play a round yourself.

  • Free during the beta
  • Up to 100 players
  • Keeps score without Wi-Fi
A table keeps score on a phone: result of round 2, Jonas scores plus 30

Everything a tournament night needs

From sign-up to the awards ceremony. No spreadsheets, no calculators, no arguing over points.

  • Three formats and a final

    Mixed, Swiss system or fixed tables. If you like, the best players meet at a final table at the end.
  • Sign-up by QR code

    Players scan the code and add themselves until game 1 starts. Or you simply paste a list of names.
  • Live display for TV and projector

    Seating, running tables and standings, big and easy to read, with your logo if you like. If it doesn't all fit, the display turns the pages by itself.
  • One phone per table

    Every table keeps score in the app, even offline. If a battery dies, another phone takes over the table.
  • Standings that add themselves up

    Placement points for every place at a table: 45, 30, 20, 10, 5, 0. Wizard points break ties.
  • Corrections without drama

    Entered a round wrong? Step back to it at the table and fix it. After the game has ended, you unlock the table once for that. The standings update right away.
  • Everyone sees their table

    On their own phone: table, opponents, place and points. No app and no account, right in the browser.
  • Light or dark

    Dark for the projector in the club room, light for the TV in a sunny café. One click and the display fits.

An evening, step by step

A tournament night with 16 players, three games and a final. The times are estimates, the fun is not.

  1. The day before

    Set up the tournament

    Name, date, format, games and rounds: four short steps in the browser. You can change everything until the start.

  2. 6:00 pm

    Players join by QR

    The QR code is up on the display. Whoever walks in scans it and signs up. Latecomers? Add them in seconds.

  3. 6:25 pm

    Draw the seating

    One click spreads everyone across the tables. Something off? Swap two players. Then the seating plan goes up on the display.

  4. 6:30 pm

    Game on, every table keeps score

    One phone per table keeps the score sheet. If the Wi-Fi gives up, it just keeps counting and sends everything once it's back online.

  5. 7:40 pm

    Live standings

    When a table finishes, its placement points go into the standings. Arrows show who's climbing. Then the next seating is drawn, depending on the format.

  6. 10:15 pm

    Final table

    The best play for the win while everyone else watches. The display shows only this table, round by round.

  7. 11:25 pm

    Awards ceremony

    Final standings and the podium on the big screen. Applause, photos and the question: when's the rematch?

Which format suits your evening?

Three ways to seat the tables. And a final that goes with any of them.

  • Mixed

    Every game is reshuffled so everyone meets as many different opponents as possible.

    Good for: Social evenings, open game nights and anyone who wants to meet new people.

  • Swiss system

    From game 2, players with similar scores sit together. The top plays the top.

    Good for: Competitive tournaments with three or more games. Exciting down to the last trick.

  • Fixed tables

    Draw or seat once, then everyone stays at the same table. If withdrawals leave a table too small or latecomers make one too full, the app draws everyone again.

    Good for: League nights, fixed groups and rooms where moving around is a hassle.

Color: table in game 1. Number: place after game 1.

Final table

Goes with any format

At the end, the best 3 to 6 meet at one table to play for the win. How they finish there is their place at the very top of the final standings.

Good for: A finale with an audience. The display then shows only the final table.

Plus the fine-tuning

1 to 10 games
Plus a final if you like. The app estimates how long a game takes.
3 to 6 per table
If the numbers don't work out, some tables seat fewer or more players.
A cap on tables
Tell the app how many tables you have. It never uses more: when it fills up, up to six sit at a table.
Rounds of your choice
All of them, only even, only odd or your own selection.
Bidding rule
Free, or the bids must add up to the tricks, or they must not.

How scoring works

After each game, everyone gets placement points for their place at the table. Ties in the standings are broken by Wizard points.

  1. Place 1: 45 points
  2. Place 2: 30 points
  3. Place 3: 20 points
  4. Place 4: 10 points
  5. Place 5: 5 points
  6. Place 6: 0 points

So at a table of four that's 45, 30, 20 and 10. With a final table, the finalists top the final standings in the order of the final.

What you need

Less than you think. Most of it is probably lying around already.

  • A screen with a browser

    Laptop on a projector, smart TV or tablet: the live display is a web page. Go full screen, done.

  • One phone per table

    iPhone or Android, the Wizard Tournaments app is free. Right now it's in beta on TestFlight and Google Play.

    How to get the app
  • Wi-Fi? Nice, but optional

    The phones only need a connection to take over their table. After that they keep score offline too and send the results as soon as they're back online.

  • One Wizard deck per table

    You bring the cards. Shuffling is still on you, sorry.

So what does it cost?

Nothing during the beta. Later there'll be a plan for organizers, paid on the web only.
