AndreSteff Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 If I understand it well, with BAM scoring 420 versus 430 will score 1 (a win) for the 430 score and 0 (a loss) for the 420 score. What happens if I decide to weight the result on one table?40% 420 and 60% 450 versus 100% 430 on the other table? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluejak Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 .. 40% of 420 v 430, 0 = 0.0+ 60% of 450 v 430, 1 = 0.6 Total 0.6. There are situations in BAM where decimals of points are applied in ACBL events, clearly not for weighted scores because they do not apply, so this is just another method of getting such points. Opponents get 0.4, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, I think I understand David's answer now: in the ACBL weighted scores are not applied in general. In the ACBL Law 12C1e is applied.

bluejak Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 That is true, but in the ACBL there are situations where BAM scores involving decimals occur. The only one I can think of is where there is a percentage carry-forward, but there may be others, so the concept of decimal scores in BAM is not new.

bluejak Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 Sorry, yes, I realised that, but sometimes the total scores come out as 23.68 or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
