League match play?

[bowl1820]

In our summer sport shot league we bowk 4 games (2 games each against 2 different teams(. In our case there is 18 points available per set. 1 point per head to head match, 2 points for team game and 1 point for team series.The head to head matches are game + handicap. The system mentioned above may use Peterson points system where you get points for beting your oponent plus points for pinfall

Possibly the variation of "Petersen" point system used, Though most of the time they drop the fraction. But since Hampe just stated a 18 point system, we have to go with that. And you don't get fractional scores like those, plus the scores don't add up right to the 18 maximum possible points for the night.

Using your example 18 points per 2 game set, will only give you a maximum of 36 points possible for the night. Not the 60+ points you get with Hampe's example

For those that don't know the Petersen System-
The Petersen Point System is often confused with other point systems. This is because there seems to be no universally accepted definition of Peterson Bonus Points and varies between leagues or tournaments.

One definition that seems to be used most often is where a player or team receives one point for every xx number of pins scored.

Usually, You get 1 point for every "Block" of 25, 50 or 100 pins of total scratch or handicap scores. The bonus is then calculated by taking the player's or team's total scores (scratch or handicap) and dividing it by the block size.

For example, if you used a 50 pin block and bowled a 575, it would be 11 points. (575 divided by 50= 11.5, with the fraction dropped).

Another variation of the Petersen point system, is where points are awarded for each "block" of pins scored. For examples, if the "block" is defined as 50 pins, and you shoot 575, you would receive 11 Petersen points. In addition, bonus points are awarded for victories. (A variation of this is where you don't drop the fraction.)

Example if you won 2 games (out of 3) plus series and 10 points were awarded for each victory, you would receive a total of 41 points for the evening. (20 points for the 2 games and 10 for the series. 11+20+10=41)

[Hampe]

Unless there is something more to the scoring going on. I don't see how they can get scores ending in .3, .6, .7 or 38 to 24.

At most In the event of a tie, you coud have a .5 in a score. And the scores of two teams should equal 18 for the night. Like 12 to 6 = 18 or 11.5 to 6.5 =18

Yea, I think they use some weird formula to calculate those totals. I'll ask again this friday....hopefully someone will be able to explain it this time.
