    =(((((B2-A2)/A2)*1000)*(C2/100))^0.33)*10+(B2/C2) Where B Winnings, A Buyin and C players. Gives a good spread of values, and rewards ROI, while taking into account buyin size and player field as well as winnings. I think it gives some pretty good results

    In Response to Re: UKOPS - the Leaderboard. : Deffo worth a gander, Mr AA. By the way, congrats on being the FIRST player to qualify for the £530 UKOPS High Roller! Now get the job finished, eh?

    TY Tikay. Should be fun and hope I can spin it up.
    Yeah I think they use some multiplier function depending on feild size and buy-in. 

    Maybe your formula wasn't a million miles away....

    P.S. Don's suggestion seems reasonable.

    Why not do it on a number of runners in each event type of score board by quatering the field each time.

    Eg 400 runners = top 100 get 100 points, 101 to 200 get 75 points, 201 to 300 get 50 points and 301 to 400 get 25 points.

    Then give extra points to the payouts.

    Eg if 30 paid 1st gets 30 points and 30th gets 1 point.

    Bit simple i know but easy enough to understand and score.

    I know it will give anyone playing more events more chance of winning but imo anyone willing to join more events should have.

    Only a idea though so dont shoot me down :)

    square root of the prize money in each event added together would work

    I would second this, fairest and funniest = win + win imo :)

    IMO size of field has to be the most important factor
    The standard of player taking part will be elite in all competitions
    therefore structured points for finishing positions should be the same in all competitions
    with 1 bonus point added for every 50 players taking part.
    When Dylan 12 won the jackpot he triumphed over 500 in each comp his score would be 30 points for winning plus bonus 10 pts for the field
    whereas winning the roller would be 30 points for the win and just 1 point for the field because less players take part and fewer decisions have to be made.
    Cash prize money should be irrelevant skillfull play should be the only thing rewarded

    The easiest factor possible would be dont go buy the buy in to the tournies forget that it should be as said...

    6 WCOPS tournies , with these points bein with in close region it would apply a close league at the same time and make it more intresting.
     
    1st ... 100
    2nd .. 90
    3rd ... 80
    4th ... 70
    5th ... 60
    6th ... 50
    7th ... 40
    8th ... 30
    9th ... 20
    10th .. 10

    hope that helps

    precisely.









    wait a minute.

       Points should be awarded to all players taking part and 1st out gets 1 pt, 2nd 2 pts etc etc. So in a 100 runner tourney winner gets 100 pts, 200 runners winner obv gets 200 pts. Players who go deep in big fields are therefore rewarded relative to field size. This is simplistic i know but eliminates the need to worry about buy ins and prize funds etc.

    To level the field completely eliminating any weighing of buy in, field size etc just base the league on % of field beaten.

    I couldn't get the spreadsheet to work perfectly so winning doesn't always get 100 points (percent passed) but a rough working copy would give this.

    Runners Finish Position % Beaten By (% You Beat)
    Points Awarded
    51 51 100 0
    51 40 78 22
    51 30 59 41
    51 25 49 51
    51 10 20 80
    51 5 10 90
    51 2 4 96
    51 1 2 98

    Runners Finish Position % Beaten By (% You Beat)
    Points Awarded
    500 500 100 0
    500 400 80 20
    500 300 60 40
    500 250 50 50
    500 100 20 80
    500 51 10 90
    500 30 6 94
    500 25 5 95
    500 5 1 99
    500 2 0 100
    500 1 0 100
    Simply put this is:

    Points Awarded = 100 - ((Finish Position / Total Runners) / 100)
