Position is based on a field of 100.

I must point out these are not steps just examples using the formula.

@Mellor, It is not the same log10.....-log 50---- the reason that is put in is so the factor of one would start at 50 runners. Less than 50 runners get a factor less than 1.


Another point. The position factors change depending on the size of the field and how many places are being paid. the factor 1 being for 10% place and the largest factor for 1st. obv.
But in this model, those doing a deal to get points for a bubble prize are given a factor of less than 1.


I will offer some points achieved for the same tourney

excellant work Iain, but I think you will need to increase the factor on finishing positions. Getting 44.45 for first and 20.09 for creepying into the money is not really a big enough difference for the amount of money difference involve and the extra skill level etc. You could still end up with a player not having a win for the year and still winning the rankings, which is not good for the rankings in general. Also I think a players top 10 results should on count as this gives all the players a equal chance on not depending on how many events you play, but again the disadvantage against this option it increase the chance of the IO winner been the top rank player for the year.

My 2 cents, I havn't read the thread so forgive if I'm repeating other viewpoints.
In my view the rankings should be top 5 only, you'll have enough out of top 5 players to make your list big enough anyway but if you include all you events and ALL your finishers you list will be HUGE by the end of the year. You also find it easier to maintain a smaller but select list. .
