Assuming all 3 games ended today (which they won't), here's the way things would look:

Austria: Board 1 (0 SC's), Board 2 (15 SC's) Board 3 (8 SC's)
England: Board 1 (7 SC's) Board 2 (5 SC's) Board 3 (7 SC's)
France: Board 1 (2 SC's) Board 2 (6 SC's) Board 3 (6 SC's)
Germany: Board 1 (10 SC's) Board 2 (5 SC's) Board 3 (4 SC's)
Italy: Board 1 (4 SC's) Board 2 (1 SC) Board 3 (1 SC)
Russia: Board 1 (0 SC's) Board 2 (2 SC's) Board 3 (0 SC's)
Turkey: Board 1 (11 SC's) Board 2 (0 SC's) Board 3 (8 SC's)


Here's how scoring works: I add the total of SC's controlled by each country across all 3 boards and divide by 3 (finding the average of the total boards). I then round to the nearest integer value (decimals of 0.5+ round up to the next integer and 0.49- round down to the nearest integer)

Here are the averages by country:
Austria: 8
England: 6
France: 5
Germany: 6
Italy: 2
Russia: 1
Turkey: 6


After obtaining the averages I do the following:
(YOUR CENTERS FOR YOUR COUNTRY) minus (AVERAGE FOR YOUR COUNTRY)

So Austria would look like:
Board 1 Austria: 0-8 = -8
Board 2 Austria: 15-8 = +7
Board 3 Austria: 8-8 = +0

Board 1 England: 7-6 = +1 Point
Board 2 England: 5-6 = -1 Point
Board 3 England: 7-6 = +1 Point

Board 1 France: 2-5 = -3
Board 2 France: 6-5 = +1 Point
Board 3 France: 6-5 = +1 Point

Board 1 Germany: 10-6 = +4
Board 2 Germany: 5-6 = -1 Point
Board 3 Germany: 4-6 = -2

Board 1 Italy: 4-2 = +2
Board 2 Italy: 1-2 = -1 Point
Board 3 Italy: 1-2 = -1 Point

Board 1 Russia: 0-1 = -1 Point
Board 2 Russia: 2-1 = +1 Point
Board 3 Russia: 0-1 = -1 Point

Board 1 Turkey: 11-6 = +5
Board 2 Turkey: 0-6 = -6
Board 3 Turkey: 8-6 = +2


I will then take each player's current score (starting at 50 ) and add or subtract the points received from these standings (NOTE THESE ARE NOT THE ENDING VALUES, JUST AN EXAMPLE. POINTS WON'T BE AWARDED UNTIL ALL GAMES FOR A PARTICULAR ROUND HAVE COMPLETED).


This system is aimed at looking at players who do well with a country when others tend to do more poorly. It is designed to remove the bias that sometimes happens when someone gets lucky and draws countries that people tend to play well and not penalize someone for getting a country that people tend to struggle with.

Therefore, since Russian players will typically see no change in score, they're not penalized for under-performance since other players playing Russia had the same outcome. Likewise, they are not benefited for not doing well. Each player is graded on a combination of how well they play on their board compared to others playing the same country on other boards.


After round 2, I will have 6 boards to use to determine my average for each country, and after round 3, I will have 9 boards used to determine the average, so average values will sway less as the tournament continues. This is to help account for the possible meta-gaming that naturally occurs in tournaments.
