AbsurdTourney is a Discord-native tournament operations bot built around start.gg.
Many tournament communities already use start.gg as the source of truth for brackets, registration, events, entrants, and matches. AbsurdTourney is designed to make that tournament activity easier to manage and follow from inside Discord, where players and staff are already communicating.
Instead of replacing start.gg, AbsurdTourney acts as a cleaner Discord layer around it.
What AbsurdTourney can do- Link a start.gg tournament to your Discord server
- Cache and display tournament events
- Show event entrants from Discord
- Show matches/sets from Discord
- Configure tournament staff permissions
- Configure public announcement channels
- Publish clean public tournament embeds

- Help staff keep tournament info visible without messy manual posts

AbsurdTourney is especially useful for esports, fighting game communities, online brackets, weekly events, community tournaments, and Discord servers that organize players around start.gg.
The bot is currently in active beta development. Current features focus on start.gg linking, tournament visibility, public Discord embeds, and safer staff workflows. Planned features include automatic event watching, signup/drop notifications, match-ready announcements, OAuth identity linking, check-in support, and result reporting workflows.
