Every great tool starts with a problem that needed solving.
If you have ever run a Swiss tournament, you know the moment we are talking about. It is the final round. Players are crowding around you asking the same question over and over:
You are trying to do the math in your head. Other players are doing it on their phones. Someone pulls out a calculator. Someone else is arguing about tiebreakers.
The whole venue is in chaos, and the round has not even started yet.
