How LeaderboardLive works

The organizer sets up the event and sends two kinds of link: scoring links to the people keeping score, and the leaderboard link to everyone else.

Who	What they need	What they do
Organizer	A free account	Creates the event, adds rounds and players, sends the links.
Scorer	Their scoring link	Enters scores hole by hole on their phone.
Everyone else	The leaderboard link	Watches every score live.

Nobody downloads an app and players never make an account. Links open in the phone’s browser.
