Byes and bracket size
Brackets run in powers of two: 4, 8, 16, 32 or 64. If you have fewer options than the bracket size, the empty spots become byes, so some options skip the first round and advance automatically. If you have more, the bracket is filled with a random selection of them. Each matchup knocks out one option, so you make one fewer pick than the number of options in the bracket: 15 picks for 16 options.
