Tournament software crashes happen. When they do, every second counts. Today we're unveiling CSV Pairings Import, a feature designed to make TopDeck.gg the perfect backup for your events.
Many organizers are stuck using unreliable tournament software but want a safety net. Manual re-pairing during a software failure wastes time, creates errors, and frustrates players. You need a way to switch platforms instantly without disrupting your event.
Import round pairings from any CSV file directly into TopDeck.gg. What used to take 15-20 minutes of manual work now takes seconds.
How It Works
- Navigate to the Round Manager in your TopDeck.gg event
- Click "Import from CSV"
- Upload your pairings file (format:
table, player 1, player 2, ...
)
- Our system automatically matches players to their assigned tables
- Hit save and continue and you're ready to go
