League Operation - The top 18 from each week's game get league points. The top 25 players are invited back at the end of the season. Points = 10 * [sqrt(n)/sqrt(k)] * [1+log(b+0.25)]
Where:
n is the number of entrants.
k is the place of finish (k=1 for the first-place finisher, and so on)
b is the buy-in amount in $ (excluding fee). For freerolls the buy-in is $0.
