Game Report
Each after game report will include:
- Game Name
- Players in Place Order (winning player first, second second and so forth)
- Game start time
- Game end time
- Signatures of all players
Points will be calculated for the players automatically, as long as you submit your Game Report correctly.
Points
Points1 will be awarded based on each Game Report such that first place is worth the number of minutes played and last place is worth half as many points as first. The other places will subdivide the gap between first and last evenly2.
For example:
Let’s say Skylar, Paul, Zack and Les play a zesty game of Dune Imperium
They play for 145 minutes and Les wins (due to his Mentat training, no doubt)
Zack comes in second place, Paul third and poor foolish Skylar comes in fourth.
Player Game Time Score Les 145 minutes 145*(6/6) = 145 Zack 145 minutes 145*(5/6) = 121 Paul 145 minutes 145*(4/6) = 97 Skylar 145 minutes 145*(3/6) = 73
Conceding Is Encouraged
Once it becomes clear that a player is in the lead, especially if it seems like they are dragging the game out to earn extra points, the other players should consider conceding. The game can only be conceded as long as all players besides the winner agree and sign the Game Report. What is written on the Game Report is final.
No Repeats
You may not play the same game back to back.
