Eh. It's just an element I'm suggesting.

I like it when two teams who have a really good partnership are able to demonstrate their abilities in the practice rounds, so I personally believe in the school of thought of giving rewards to only the winners.

That said, if two experienced teams come up against two rookie teams without incentive to make it a close game as the current scoring system suggests, they'll demolish them. By doing the square root or something to that extent, it rewards those teams who win the game, but minimizes the effect of multiple blowouts (i.e. winning by 49 nets you only 7 QP).

We could use the natural log of the MOV if you want.
