[USML Announce] BA 100 Top Prospects

[Jim Barrett]

Best way to do it is give first place 100 points and count down from there so that 100th place gets 1 point. Highest point total wins. You don't need to eliminate anyone for less than 3 players that way either.

By this system, if Owner A has a player on the list who is rated at #50, and Owner B has 2 players rated 25 and 26 (giving them a score of 51), then technically Owner A has the more braggadocious score, despite the fact Owner B has more players in the Top 100 both of who are rated higher than Owner A's only player on the list.
