Your post-poule seed (optional)

Valid seed range: 1–90 (current tableau T128).

Enter your seed to see the expected opponent each round. An empty slot shows the seed plus “Bye”.

Tableau size is the next power of two ≥ promoted fencers.
Byes = T − k. First-round fencers = max(0, 2k − T). Matches = first-round fencers ÷ 2.
Poules are balanced between 4 and 7: start with ceil(n/7), then even out so sizes differ by at most 1.
