Formula, 5 rounds on 8 rounds...

[Tonyo1977]

Hello,

I organize a championship with 8 rounds soon.
Only the best 5 results will be taken into account for the overall ...  

Is it possible to achieve this with TD3? If so, how?
I would also like to give a formula for the first 8 players of each round. This according to the total prize pool ...  
And bonuses in the style "bounty" ...

Thank you in advance for your answers,  
greetings pokéristiques

I believe what you are looking for is this:

top(5, scores)

I would also like to give a formula for the first 8 players of each round. This according to the total prize pool ...

You're going to have to be more specific.

[Tonyo1977]

Buy-in: € 2
add-on: 2 €
Rake: € 0.20
number of players: variable following tournaments

OK, maybe *I* should be more specific.  You said:

I don't know what you mean by this.  Sounds like you want to award points to the best 8 players in a tournament, and base those points off of the total prize pool.  This can be done, but you need to be more specific about what you want to award these players.

[Tonyo1977]

Consider an example:
20 players to start
The last 8 final table
Prizepool with rebuys and add-on: 120 €
rake: 12 € (10% of total)
the real prize pool is 120 - 12 = € 108

the first scores the most points, report € 108
the second as well, but a little less
and so on ...

Also with bounty and bonus for releasing a player ...
5 points for the bounty
2 points for a player out ...

I'll help you code up the formula.  You've got to come up with the details of what you want to award.

To get us started:

if(finalTable, prizePool - pow(if(r = 1, 0, r), 2)) + nh * 2

This gives points like this:

 1: 180
 2: 176
 3: 171
 4: 164
 5: 155
 6: 144
 7: 131
 8: 116
 9:   0
10:   0
11:   0
12:   0
13:   0
14:   0
15:   0
16:   0
17:   0
18:   0
19:   0
20:   0


This formula includes points for knocking other players out (nh * 2).  For a bounty, you should set up a Prize.
