Also requested: easiest and most difficult tournament schedule for team just eliminated, and for a remaining team.

Various ways of doing it, but probably just use either max CR for bots and add the numbers, then the hardest schedule is the minimum. Or do it by adding the division of the team played each round. Just thoughts.

Good stuff you provide :)
