<Format>:

[player]-[player] [result] [# of MOVES]

==4 Different Scoring Methods==

Standard Moves Ranker (1st place-Over[3pts], 1st place-Under [7pts], Exact [10pts])

Bonus Ranker (3rd place-Over[1pts],2nd place-Over[2pts],3rd place-Under [5pts], 2nd place-Under [6pts]

Standard Moves/Bonus Ranker [Add all to together]

1st place Ranker [how many 1st place you have in Standard Moves Ranker]

For example:

<Note: Participants 3, 4, and 5 are predicated on nobody scoring an exact as Participant 2 did. If someone hits an exact, the closest score under and over will score the points for second place.>

Actual Game: [player]-[player] 0-1 45

Participant 1: [player]-[player] 1/2 45
Participant 2: [player]-[player] 0-1 45
Participant 3: [player]-[player] 0-1 44
Participant 4: [player]-[player] 0-1 43
Participant 5: [player]-[player] 0-1 46

Participant 1: No points even though 45 is correct. Results must be correct. If Result is wrong and moves # is correct...you get no points whatsoever

Participant 2: 10 pts rewarded for correct Result/moves #

Participant 3: 7 pts rewarded for closest under (1st-Under) to 45 moves

Participant 4: 6 pts rewarded for the 2nd closest under (2nd-Under) to 45 moves.

Participant 5: 3 pts rewarded closest OVER(1st-OVER) to 45 moves.

Again, the description of Participant 3, 4, and 5 are based on there being no exact prediction as made by Participant 2.

<IF> there is an exact or an under closest, the highest scoring over participant will be 2nd over. The second closest over will be 3rd over. The <ONLY> time there will be a first over is if there is no exact or under winner.

  jessicafischerqueen: I'd just like to give a tip of the hat to <Ohio Chess Fan> who just made one of the cleverest puns I've ever seen at CG.com. <Chancho> posted "recluse" for "recuse", probably a typo-

Then <Ohio> jested did he mean "brown recluse."

The <brown recluse spider> is the world's most poisonous spider, measured by venom concentration.

This "game" has already been poisoned, sad to say.

However, I'm most impressed by <Ohio's> humor *and* zoological knowledge.

  jessicafischerqueen: <"recluse" would be a pretty good pun for "recuse".>

Good point- the words do have similar meanings and must certainly be related etymologically.

So <Chancho> deserves credit for the initial "unintentional pun."

  OhioChessFan: I thought the spider/tick reference was of some interest too. Another unintentional pun on his part that I was likewise alluding to.

  jessicafischerqueen: lol yes!

In this case <Mr. Zhadanov> being the "tick" on the side of the World Team.
