| Tournaments generate a lot of data, and most of the features that can be added to tournaments-- like teams, clans, or leagues-- generate even more data. It's important that all this data is well organized from top to bottom to avoid confusion, maximize utility to staff and players, and keep everything in its place. AADL has been running tournaments through our own web services since 2004, so the gtsystem data structures are based on our experience about what needs to be tracked and how it needs to be organized. | Tournaments generate a lot of data, and most of the features that can be added to tournaments-- like teams, clans, or leagues-- generate even more data.
