In an 18-board recent ACBL SYC Black Point Daylong (April 11, Section 20), the following points were awarded at the top of a section:


Name Score (%) Rank A B C Points
overtrump.63.11.....1......1.50
syq1......62.35.....2 1 1..1.12
Smokey_cdn62.32.....3 2....1.00
SeaKayaker60.62.....4 3 2..1.60
....


Can anyone explain how SeaKayaker was awarded the most points here? Or even how one wins 1.6 points in an event with 2.5 maximum and 1.5 maximum per section?

Are there separate invisible flights for age / gender?

I am very confused.... I am even confused where one put this question on this board....

It's obvious Seakayaker gets the most points because that's what happens when YA SEEK an ARK

These tourneys use the same point calculation method as the ACBL Daylong tourneys. There are hidden "meta-sections" that are used for calculating overall awards. You get the better of your section or meta-section award.
