Title: Points awarded for playing
Post by: Payner on March 13, 2014, 06:41:10 PM
I'm very new to all this, so please excuse my ignorance, I am trying to set up a layout for our poker league, I am having trouble with allocating the correct points for the position finished, we currently award 100 for 1st down to 20 for 9th and all players who participated get 10 each.

We also have a double point night halfway through the league is it possible to double the points for just one game of the 16 week season?

Could one of you fine fellow TD users please give me a bit of assistance in this matter. I am trying to get the running structure of the league right before I customise the layout, is this the correct way to proceed?

Many Thanks in advance

Set Points for Playing (on the Game tab) to:

max(11 - r, 1) * 10

Sure.  Just set set the Points for Playing to:

max(11 - r, 1) * 20

Doesn't matter.  The layout is just how you display things to your players.  Shouldn't affect the tournament at all.
