Yes I want to award points to all players who participate. and more points for place as in 25th place 20 points and 24th place 25 points etc....
you'd have to rig the points awarded formula... in the 'points for playing'
n-r+1 sets up the points in a ladder
ex. 20 people, 1st = 20, 2nd = 19,........... 19th = 2, 20 = 1pt. (so everyone gets at least 1pt)
As for spacing it so there's 5 points difference for position... I dunno.
Honestly though, how come?
people come up with wayyyyy to complicated formulas
I find that n-r+1 keeps the league pretty close in points, and keeps it exciting. Even for the guys who may miss a week or two, they still have a shot @ top 10.
Add negative points (-2) for rebuys and points (1/2pt) for hits, and you're all set with an easy scoring format that everyone can follow
