Somehow, the only big difficulty to this year's scoring system seemed to be the time multipliers. Other than that, the scoring was pretty simple. Bridge balancing was self-explanatory...
I think last year's scoring was more diabolical, with the winning team's score being 3 times that of the losing team. I think at San Jose last year, Team 330 was the only undefeated team after the qualifying matches, but they were only seeded 5th or something like that because of match scores.
There was also another round when we were paired with 360 (I think) and we had to score ALL the points for the other team. I think we barely outscored ourselves though, but ended up with a HUGE amount of qualifying points.
All in all, I can't wait to see how scoring develops next year.
Just my personal thoughts...
