Among Us tournaments

Among us tournament currently hold lobbies of 10 people and points are awarded as participants win lose gain kills or vote correctly/ incorrectly. The code in this notebook and script file is designed to randomly auto-sort a number of participants 20 - 40 into groups of 10 for tournament level games. The output will produce randomised teams of ten players labeled lobbies.

Usage:

Visit the link: https://among-us-tournament-randomiser.herokuapp.com/ and feed the auto-sorter
the three .txt files which should contain no whitespaces and no extra lines: file 1: participants.txt file 2: admins.txt (should contain admins or moderators who are also in participants.txt - can be blank) The code in the Jupyter notebook can be run to the same effect, if you prefer.
