The name of group m in round n. For each round, every set of four teams is classified as a group. RD n-seed m: The seed of team m in round n. For round 1, this value defaults to the conventional seed allocation for tournaments. If omitted, the cell is hidden. To hide seeds for round 1, the value must be explicitly set to be empty. m is the zero ...

The 1983 tournament is the latest to incorporate first-round byes for seeded teams. The first-round best-of-three series tapped off on Tuesday and Wednesday, April 19 and 20; the second-round best-of-sevens on Sunday to the following Wednesday, April 27.

byes: set to yes to hide any team cells that are empty. Alternatively, set to m to have rounds 1 through m hide any team cells that are empty. Use RDm-byes for just matches under column m. Use RDmh-byes for just matches under header h only in column m. no: show-bye-paths: set to yes to replace any team cells that that are hidden byes with a ...
