Well, we did have a difference of opinion on this at first, but it was more about whether the points would be awarded at all if the player either won or chopped (i.e., was not knocked out). I was thinking they should be awarded, and we decided to go with that partly based on how TD handles it.
But I thought it only made sense that if we were going to award them, that the player could chop them. Unless some total restriction on chops has been imposed, I don't see why there should be any restriction on these particular points being split. From the standpoint of the other player, I'd argue that I'm entitled to a portion of those points since I'm foregoing the opportunity to win them.
In any case, what I did in the meantime was just another slight variation on your suggestions. I overrode the amount in the original prize, and created a 2nd prize for that bounty and overrode both the winner and the points. Since I already use the adjustments on the players tab to split the points for playing from the formula that are based on rank, I didn't want to lump these in with those. But I guess as long as I could use the Notes section to keep track of everything, I could simplify things a bit and just do it all on the players tab. Thanks.
