NPL points structure apply for Challenge events?

eg: the $2 888PL (C) 8:30 event that I'm about to play :)


Actually, how the fark are those things ranked?
Pardon me, but I think you'll find that's a shovel. See you next Tuesday!

Yeah. Are they going to be doubled pointed with 20 runners? Compared to single points for the 100+ freerolls? Hope not.

Are live tournaments worth more than online? Are live freerolls/online freerolls the same? Etc.

Just a simple question, and correct me if i have read this wrong

BUT, the seasons are now listed as 15 weeks long with quarterly semi-finals?

Now im pretty sure a year isn't 60 weeks long....

2 seasons gone already = 20 weeks

2 seasons of 15 = 30

i reckon they will then go to 13 weeks like they originally were

Currently points will be the same for all fields/events/divisions games. All tournaments are equal and the top 15 will receive points.

Correct! We finish off this year with 2 15 week season, a bit long I know. But we felt the need to extend the first season so players get their head around everything. Next year we go to quarterly seasons.

People need to understand WHAT the Home Challenge games are about.

Many times last night:

"Are these for points?"
"Why should I care? Look at what we are playing for!"
"It's only a freeroll"
"Do we get points for this?"
I'm not perfect. I'm what perfect aspires to become

i agree, people dont know what they are playing for at the moment.

are the results of the online games going to be up on the 888pl website soon? this might help people realise that its just like any other venue
