This is for running tournaments that are unrelated to any "regular season" division. Scheduling options presented will be based on the number of teams in the tournament.

It can also be used for tournament-style playoff scheduling for divisions where teams might opt not to participate in the playoffs. This should not be used when playoffs are part of the normal division schedule.

The Wager ratings calculator is the current recommended choice.

This uses a wagering system, where the final score determines the total amount of the pot. It's based around a winning score of 15 points and tweaked to produce the same ratings change for similar point differentials for higher/lower final scores.

Each team contributes a percentage of the pot based on their expected chance to win. The losing team always takes away the same number of rating points as their game points, while the winning team takes away the remainder.

Thus, the point differential change amounts to:

(total_pot - loser_score - winner_wager)
