Definitely not the kind of thing that would be in the OP!
Scoring:
This tournament uses raw scoring.
There are three scoring schemes: cumulative scoring, tournament points, and individual round scoring. Everyone is automatically entered into all types when they sign up.
In cumulative scoring, your best score on each round is added up over the course of the tournament, and the highest total in each division wins.
I will grant extensions so long as you tell me in advance.
Scores submitted after the round ends without an extension are penalized 4 goods (100 points raw score) multiplied by the round number. So if you submit a late score for your round 3 file, you will lose 300 points from the score.
This is the type of scoring you're familiar with in the Dragon's Fury Tournaments, etc.
With Tournament Points, upon the end of a round, you are assigned a point value based on your score. Points add up over the course of the tournament, and the highest total wins in the end.
1000 points are awarded to those with the highest score in the round, then subsequent points are given at a rate of 90% of the previous point reward.
Thus the points given each round go 1000 to the highest scorer(s), then 900, 810, 729, 656, 590, 531, 478, 430, 387, etc.
Extensions and late scores for this type of scoring are handled the same way as in cumulative scoring.
This is the type of scoring you're familiar with in Dossar's Brutality Tournaments, Devonin's FFR League, etc.
In individual round scoring, at the end of each round, the best scores in each division win credits. Period.
There are no extensions for this type of scoring.
This type of scoring will encourage you to try your best on every round- even if you feel like you are falling behind in the other scoring types, you can still win credits in any round with a strong performance.
Prizes for this style of scoring will be tracked and distributed at the end along with the prizes for cumulative scoring.
