About PK Tournament
Break one big choice into duels
Add 4-16 candidates, one per line, then start the bracket. Candidates with the same text are kept as separate entries by input position. Each active match shows A versus B, and you pick the winner until one champion remains.
Random seeding, human winners
CSPRNG only shuffles candidate seeding; when the count is not a power of two, the bracket then adds deterministic byes. Winners are never chosen by the random seed; they come from your clicks. The verification drawer covers the initial candidate order and seed, while the undo stack stays in the current browser session.
Share the champion path
When the bracket is complete, the page shows the champion, runner-up context, and each round of the champion path. You can copy the plain-text result or create a result card, but this is for preference narrowing and fun comparisons, not formal ranking, consent, hiring, judging, or high-stakes decisions.
FAQ
Common questions and answers about this topic.
Why pick two at a time instead of just drawing one?
When all the options are ones you like, a single random draw can feel arbitrary. Comparing two at a time lets you converge on your real preference through a series of small, easy A-vs-B decisions, and the winner is one you actually chose.
Is the bracket fair, and can I verify it?
The opening pairing is shuffled by a CSPRNG and recorded as a seed, timestamp, and inputs hash you can open and copy. Given the same seed and candidates, the bracket reproduces exactly, so no one can claim the matchups were rigged.
Is my list saved anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser for this one session only. Nothing is uploaded or stored, and refreshing the page clears it. If you want to keep a result, take a screenshot or copy the verification seed.
