<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.
Things To Look At:
1. Game Collection: 1975 World Junior chess championship
2. Ongoing edits Vladimir Ostrogsky
3. Bio Adolf Zytogorski
4. Complete the Olympiad
5. Bio Lorenz Maximilian Drabke
7. Baden-Baden (1870)
11. Carl Mayet
12. Smbat Lputian
13. Brian Flowers

Jan-27-16		Penguincw: eye twitches Great, <more> points robbed. This is what happens when users become bookie...

Jan-27-16		Karposian: <Penguincw: eye twitches Great, <more> points robbed.> Yes, poor <Penguincw> who got robbed a whole point! Now you've got 100 points in the M+B ranker instead of 101. The injustice!

Jan-27-16		OhioChessFan: Well, he was trying to keep within 50 points of me.

Jan-28-16		WinKing: <Penguincw: This is what happens when users become bookie...> Actually I think they have a saying that says it best <Penguincw>: "what goes around comes around". No one is exempt from this truism.

Jan-28-16		OhioChessFan: A little off day entertainment. Elvis trivia. 1. What was my favorite aftershave? 2. Who recorded a song about me called "Hound Dog Man"? 3. What was my stillborn twin brother's name? 4. What was my first gold record? 5. What was my favorite sandwich? 6. Who choreographed the dance scene in Jailhouse Rock? 7. In 1976, what famous musician snuck into Graceland to try to meet me? 8. What high school did I go to? 9. What advice did the Grand Ole Opry give me? 10. What was my pet chimp's name?
