Auto Seed Jogadores?
No
Yes
Auto seeding places jogadores on the ladder according to their skill level — higher-level jogadores start higher on the ladder.
K-factor
Controls how many ladder points are exchanged after each match. Higher values lead to bigger point swings; lower values result in more gradual movement. Default is 72, tuned for balanced seeding and predictable progression. Adjust to speed up or slow down ladder movement.
Percentage of...

This option keeps your jogadores from playing the same opponents over and over. A player will not be able to play another player if they have played them within this number of past matches. For example, if your last 2 matches were against Bob then John, and this number was set to 2, then you would not be able to play either player, since they were played within the last 2 matches. Use "Max" if you want a round robin format. This insures everyone plays everyone.

Step-By-Step Ladder Setup
This tool will help you set up the most important aspects of your ladder.
Afterwards, you can update the changes that were made, or update any other additional settings this tool doesn't cover.
What Gender?
Select the gender the players of your ladder must be?
Singles or doubles?
Will players be playing singles or doubles matches?
Rotating partners?
Do your doubles players rotate partners?
If you select "yes", this will rank your players individually, instead of 2 player teams.
Keep in mind, if you do want 2 player teams, a player can be on more than one team. Select "no" to use teams.
Challenge ladder?
Will your players challenge each other to a match?
Organized matches?
Will matches be played on specific dates?
Select "Yes" if you will determine when and where matches will be played.
Example: round robins, weekly play, scheduled matches
How will matches be scheduled?
Team vs Team:
You will specify exactly which teams play which teams at specific dates & times.
By Group:
You will assign players to a group, and they will rotate opponents and partners (doubles). This creates a mini round robin per group.
Players submit scores?
Do you want your players to submit their own match scores?
All Finished
You can now finish setting up your ladder.
