Preparing for the "Van Kanegem" tournament.

I see the topic is developing... :) I'm already starting to get lost in all the new features...

Acceptable limits have been introduced for leaders, depending on the size of the map.

Who determines the "reasonable acceptable limit," and how much trust do we place in this expert? That's the first thing.

In other words, if a leader doesn't meet the reasonable limits for completing the game, they won't get 100 points for the tournament. Consequently, the others will be jumping ahead of the leader.

And secondly, there's no point in calculating from the "acceptable limit." Because a proportionality coefficient is simply applied – and a reducing coefficient is applied to the tournament rating of all players.
k = D(acceptable limit) / D(leader), where D is the number of days spent completing the game. In other words, why complicate the calculation mechanics if no one gets an advantage?

The system automatically takes into account the place occupied by the player – the fewer days, the higher the place.

It seems, on the contrary, that it doesn't take into account the place occupied by the player... Or what was meant? :)
