Monthly Master Points
Calculating Monthly Master Points
1. At the end of the current month click on ADMINISTRATION PANEL (small white letters below the 20 boxes in the upper right.)
2. Click on MONTHLY RANKING LIST. (small white printing on the right side of the screen.) This brings up POINTS REVIEW in orange letters. Input the
BEGIN DATE and END DATE for the past month as instructed. Then input the CUT-OFF NUMBER OF GAMES. This is the minimum number of games a player must
have played during the month in order to qualify for MASTER POINTS (MP). Currently, the number is 40. Then click GET ALL MONTHLY RANKINGS.
(a) Scroll down to the first set showing just the POINTS each player had for the month.
(b) Scroll further down to the first set showing just the SKILL RATIO (SR) each player had for the month.
(C) Scroll further down to the first set showing WINNING PERCENTAGE (WP) each player had for the month.
For each of the 3 lists in (a) (b) and (c) only the top 10 are awarded MASTER POINTS (MP)
MPs are awarded for the top 10 players as follows:
15..13..11..09..07..06..05..04..03
Now you have 3 separate list of Master Points awarded for POINTS, SKILL RATIO and WINNING PERCENTAGE. Y
Using the data from the 3 lists compile a 4th list of all of the players receiving MP for the month.
You can see samples of these lists posted each month.
The total of all MP awarded for the month must equal 243 (81 x 3 =243). This figure could be 244 245, 246 if there tie scores. ie. two players tied in
9th and 10th place receive 4 MP each instead of 4 and 3. 4+3=7 divided by 2 gives 3.5 each which rounds up to 4 MP each
All 4 of the above lists are posted on the website.
