How to play
- Add everyone, then mark who must not draw whom: couples, households, last year's matches.
- The draw never pairs anyone with themselves and honours every exclusion. If no draw is possible, it says which rule to relax.
- On phones, each person sees only their own match. On one device, pass it round and each person peeks in turn.
- The full list stays on the host device.
What the app does for you
The draw never pairs anyone with themselves and honours every rule you set: couples, households and last year's matches. If no fair draw is possible it tells you which rule to relax instead of forcing one.
Play it on one device passed round the room, or have everyone join with their own phone using the code on the TV.
