I haven't had a chance to do a complete writeup yet (big art deadline tomorrow that's demanding my time). I intend to detail it all fully Fri eve or Sat and post before the race.

Crude explanation is this, though (and this is just my initial plan)...
- The point value of a given event is equal to the number of drivers starting the race. Each driver that finishes the race earns a number of points inverse to their finishing position.

Example:

• 6 cars in a starting grid (call them Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, and Foxtrot).
• This generates a 6 point value to the race.
• If all 6 cars finish the race...

- 1st place earns 6 points
- 2nd place earns 5 points
- 3rd place earns 4 points
- 4th place earns 3 points
- 5th place earns 2 points
- 6th place earns 1 point

• If any of the cars were disqualified, or did not finish, they would earn 0 points for the race. This does *not* redistribute the unclaimed points to the finishing drivers, however.

So that's the gist of it. I still want to work in some bonus points for Laps Led, Fastest Lap, etc (no doubt I'll need to tweak the point spread per race so bonus points don't overwhelm finishing points too much). The central idea here is to keep points determined by participants, and keep league standings close enough to maintain competition over a season (hopefully!).

Squid pointed me to a really interesting system that's been posted over at the RSC forums. It's far more robust and tracks a lot more info. And it does so automatically when you have it read some results file in the game directory. I'm undecided about using this, as it all happens on a third party website. I'd like to keep it here at home on TG. So for now, I'm going to flesh out our own grassroots league point system (in advance of the first race! ).
