A single/double elim tournament should never be run off of a non-multiple of 2; especially if you aren't stratifying byes.

Also, I know I can create a tournament with 256 players with Beta3, but does it actually work? I noticed that in the database, it only has till ROUND7 on the players table, which would be enough for 64 players. For 256 players, you would need up to ROUND9. So if I made a tournament with 256 players, would it work? Or would it be broken?

It's not been tested. I'll add in those columns.
