: If FIRST keeps the same or similar Qpoint scheme, then the penalties should be given to your opponent not taken from your score.

: OR How about this: In addition to your score teams would get a 'penalty score'

: The penalty score would be added to the losing score when they calculate your opponent's Qpoints ALSO, when they calculate your team's Qpoints, the Penalty Score would be subtracted from the loosing score.

: Win or loose, a penalty would help your opponents & hurt your team.

: What do you think?

: Joe J.

What if the game was closer? Opponent has 12 pts, you have 10. Opponent has a 3 pt. penalty. Does it make sense to get 45 or 36 Qpoints when you only scored 10 pts yourself?
