Mixer Multi-Pool — Split Big IR Fields Into Parallel Pools

Individual-rotating (mixer / rotating-partners) tournament divisions can now be split into 1–8 pools. Each pool runs its own rotating-partner schedule with its own round target and per-pool standings; top N from each pool advance via snake-seeded cross-pool bracket. Single-pool back-compat fully preserved. This update is designed for tournament organizers and players who want a better tournament play experience — less manual work, more control, and a smoother workflow.

What's Included

• 1–8 pools per IR division with admin-set count
• Auto-balance by DUPR snake-draft, random shuffle, or manual drag/drop
• Per-pool target_pool_rounds override (Pool A=3 rounds, Pool B=5)
• Three playoff modes: top-N-per-pool · all-from-all-pools · single-pool back-compat
• Snake cross-pool seeding (1A·1B·1C·1D · 2D·2C·2B·2A) protects top seeds
• Cross-pool court allocation keeps all courts in play across pools
• Mobile: pool filter chip rail on standings + Pool A chip on match cards
• ResetPoolPlayService is pool-aware — reset one pool without touching others
