You have a very valid point elsadog, but as I have fairly narrowly missed the cash in 3 of 4 mtt's (not the ME) that I've played tonight, I shall bask in some form or glory - pssst Vince - don't change the scoring system ;-)
I know this is a bit of a fun comp but if it is the best average performance then why is no account taken of the number of entrants in each tournament? The average is taken from the top when surely it should be taken from the bottom ....... or am I having a senior moment again? How can 10th of 40 be a better score than 11th of 300? Posted by elsadog
It's done that way because that's how I decided to do it.
Each method has its merits and drawbacks, one favours those who do well in the smaller field events, the other favours those who do well in the larger field event. In this case, if we used your method, anyone doing well in the Main Event would automatically feature at the top of the table (assuming they competed in either of the other two tournaments) because there is such a discrepancy between the numbers in the Main Event and the other two events.
A fairer method might be to award points based on the % of the field that a player beats but that would not be as "transparent" and we decided some time ago that it would not be suitable for an event like this which is just "a bit of fun".

I've clearly explained the reasoning if you care to read the rest of my post.
To give an example, if we used your "number of players" beaten method, someone who finished 100th in the Main Event and last in both of the other two events would score about 75 points whereas someone who won both the other events would only score about 70 points. I don't think even you would think that is a better system.

I'm not going to argue the point with you Vince as it's a bit of fun but just remember that next time you bounce up to correct someone else who hasn't got it quite right. It seems near enough will do sometimes.

There is nothing "near enough" about this scoring system so your comment is rather odd. It is the system that was published last week before the event started.
I tend to think carefully before correcting people; I don't just "bounce up".
Great updates Squawky & Vince. Nice one liners as always Dave ) One quick question for Meredonkey...... I finished 7th in the TOT.....so my ave is 7......do I win?....:))) Posted by MAXALLY

Nice try. Sadly you needed to compete in at least two of the tournaments to be eligible.

Vince i think we should give him entry to the 1AM Night Owls Rebuy event for trying*
