Last week started off the 6 week series. I set up the Series with 6 tournaments. Each week is Group match play, 1 round with 4 matches. I set it up with Swiss pairing however. I started tomorrow’s round to test the pairing between weeks and just like I thought, it’s not pairing between tournaments within the same series. What am I doing wrong?

desperate plea for help bump

So to do a 6 week league with Swiss pairing should it be a TOURNAMENT instead of a series, and have 6 rounds in the tournament? And wait til the next week to start the round?

thanks for the responses, basically to do what I want I have to just set up a 6 round tournament instead of series. The series works great for knockouts but not group play. Ive done the long tournament in the past like this but I wanted to utilize the series option, because I give the players 2 of the worst scores to drop so if they miss a week or 2 they aren't out of the running, but I have to do that manually now on a spreadsheet.

I was going to do the manual seeding but its a pain when you go to start and you have 30 people waiting on you to thumb around with the clunky matchplay site.

the last series we did I did the 6 round tournament and each week kept the scores on a spreadsheet, matchplay swiss paired throughout the 6 rounds but as the weeks went on I manually deleted peoples 2 lowest weeks to get the true number outside of matchplay. Its not that bad but on matchplay while setting up a series it gives the option to drop 2 low scores out of the tournaments. That's what made me try this out. Like I said this would work for a knockout series, but not for the Group Play. I feel like they should just add the option in the tournament (Swiss pair based on previous tournaments in a series)
