Those are huge changes, as how they impact the teams. If you had team that totally dominated before, 75-0, for example, that team doesn't do any better than the teams they just beat, and perhaps if there had been a penalty - they would actually do worse than the teams they just beat.

Let's see if we can get this cleared up a bit. I believe that in
Andrew's calculation he kept the seeding scores and the coopertition bonus separate, but I'm not sure. If that is indeed the case, that's where the two differ as I have the coopertition bonus added to the seeding scores in
mine.
