how is called this procedure for 1 vs 1 game
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}

Lets consider a 1 vs 1 game that involve two players around a table, such as table tennis or chess. When they are played by a large group of people at the same time, a peculiar procedure is often used; all the tables are moved into a single row, binomes are randomly determined at first, then everybody follows the rule "if you win, you move to table on your left, if you loose you move to the table on your right".
In french this procedure is called a "montante/descendante" ("ascending/descending"). Does it have a specific name in english?

By the way, binome is a faux ami as we say. Binome is barely ever used in English and when it is, it's an alternate spelling for binom, which is a technical term in linguistics for a compound word, or possibly an archaic version of binomial, as in the mathematical concept.

I have a feeling this varies a lot by region. Where I’m from, it’s usually called world champion(ships), but I wouldn’t be surprised if people from elsewhere had no idea what I meant if I suggested a game of world champion. I have this impression that I’ve also heard it called switch, but I may be misremembering either the term or exactly what it applied to.
