hi all,
I'm hoping that someone can with a slight problem that I can't seem to solve on my own
We run a small home league of no more than 9 players on a given night (i.e. one table only). The points scoring system is fairly basic with 1st getting 10 points, 2nd gets 6 and 3rd gets 4. In addition to this we also award a point per hit with the winner of the previous league having an extra point on their head.
I have worked out all of this and it works fine. We do however have a couple of other stipulations which are, if a player gets taken out 1st then that player gets a 2 point fine (I can work out the formula for ths as well). After being taken out 1st, if that player rebuy and is the next player to be taken out again then they receive a further 5 point penalty on top of the 2 they already received.
I've run through a dummy game and saved the action summary to try and illustrate this...
