<span style="font-size: 14pt">PRSS Scoring</span>
Point System for qualifying matches (simpler version 1.2)
Each qualifying event will be worth 100 total Series points. For first place, a competitor shall receive 100 points.
The remaining field of competitors will receive points normalized from the percentage earned in relationship to the top score.
PRSS Points = (Highest Total Match Points/Individual’s Total Match Points) x 100.
Example: 1st place = 2450 match points for 100%, or 100 SERIES points;
10th place = 1980 match points for 80.816% of 1st place score, or 80.816 SERIES points.
Values will be rounded up or down, to the third digit accordingly.
The top 40 competitors with the most points will have guaranteed slots to the PRSS Finale and be eligible to compete for the match champion and points championship of an estimated $7500 payout.
