Did you guys hear from anyone regarding your bracket needs? I’ve customized a few wordpress plugins in my time, and would be happy to look into this for you in exchange for a beer or two. Let me know over Facebook or Google Plus.
We have a few things in the works now. Right now it looks like our needs fall into 2 areas. 1) a decent database, so we don’t have to keep reformatting data and 2) and decent display of the bracket information from the database.
Fair enough. Seems like it would be ideal to have a WP plugin, but my quick search didn’t turn up anything close to being able to handle what you need without significant mods.
Last time I looked for a plugin a few months ago I wasn’t able to find anything either. Arata covered the current situation and my current plan. I will probably just set up the database in the same Excel sheet. I can copy and paste the Excel sheet into my 10 year old version of Frontpage and get the html without writing any code. I don’t think anything other than a wordpress plugin will be that easy. Let me know if you do run into something you think we can use or you can modify for us to use and I can make you famous with a few hundred beer nerds and arrange for some good beer to be shared with you.

Webmaster Ben started working on a new Excel based bracket http://www.beerdownload.com/wordpress/the-bracket/ – and is probably going to continue to populate unless we find a better solution.
