A Ladder that can be used to maintain an ongoing tournament.

The Plan:

Data will be maintain in a document database (probably mongo)

ladder structure ['Pat', 'Stanislav', 'Sohrab', 'Tim', etc]

Visual Representation will be a Tree

                      Tim
          Stanislav <   
        /             Mike
Pat   <            
        \             Joe
          Sohrab    <
                      Doug
