Adding location for participants
It would be great if we had the option and ability to add location that participants are from. This would help seed players by area/region/state/etc. Shuffling seeds is great, but doesn't solve issues with players who have traveled together a long way, only to go up against each other in the 1st round.
The idea is, if they are really good, then they would eventually meet in the later rounds, much like #1 and #2 seeded players. Earliest those two should meet would be in semi/winners finals otherwise you could very well have one of the best competitors being eliminated too early (especially in a single elimination tournament).
