Alright, so I was messing around and wanted to make a 64-team single elimination bracket. It’s basically like a tournament thing where if you lose, you’re out, right? Sounds simple enough. I went online and searched for something like “64 team bracket single elimination,” and man, there are tons of these things. I grabbed one that seemed okay, nothing special, just a plain, simple bracket.

First, I started to put the names of the 64 teams into their starting spots. You know, the very first round. It takes a while, but it’s pretty straightforward. You just need to put the teams in the right place, so the whole thing makes sense.
Here’s how I did it:
- I wrote down all 64 team names on a piece of paper first.
- Then I carefully put each team name in the first round of the bracket.
- I made sure each team had a match-up in that first round.
The tricky part
After I had the first round filled, the next step was figuring out who played who as they won. It gets a bit messy here. Basically, the winner of the first match goes to the next round, and so on. So, I followed the lines on the bracket and moved the winning team up to the next round’s slot.
Keeping it going
I just kept doing that for each round. The winner of the first round goes to the second round, the winner of the second goes to the third, and on and on. It feels like it takes forever, especially when you’re doing it by hand. But eventually, you start to see the whole thing taking shape. It’s kind of cool to watch it all unfold, even if it is a bit tedious.
The final part
You keep going until you only have two teams left. That’s your championship match right there. And then, of course, the winner of that match is your overall champion. Boom! You’ve got your single-elimination tournament completed. It’s a lot of writing, but seeing the whole thing filled out is pretty satisfying, I gotta say.
So yeah, that’s how I made my 64-team single elimination bracket. It was a bit of a process, but hey, I got it done. And now I can say I’ve made one of these things from start to finish. Pretty neat, huh?
