Suggestion

Remove the Round 1 - Round 50 hardcodedness from the database

Reason

It uses up disk space for no reason, and to have a 50 round playoff structure is highly unlikely. You could have a ranked tournament where each day the winner plays the next highest rank and have it for the top 51 ranked teams in which case you would get 50 rounds.

Every time the playoff structure appears in the game it takes up around 681 bytes (not much in a singularity, but it gets saved for every league for every year). Using a variable length could save over 500 bytes per league per year (assuming a 4 round playoff system)

Priority

Low
