Bracket Pool Commissioner
A pool-management app that lets a friend group run a knockout bracket or survivor contest for the 2026 World Cup, with automated scoring, chat, and a built-in rulebook for ranking points.

- One-tap pool setup with custom scoring rules (confidence points, upset bonuses, ranking multipliers)

- Pool chat and trash-talk threads tied to each match
- Weekly commissioner digest showing standings, biggest movers, and eliminated players
