Future Cribbage Tournaments

Post by Spence of Spades »

I LOVE that you got cribbage all set up on BGA. Once we get out of the Beta zone, I was wondering if there is a method for doing the official cribbage method of doing a tournament, which incorporates any number of people and everyone plays eight games against different opponents. The scoring in the tourney part of it is a little different, The winner of each game gets two points, the loser gets zero. If a skunk is achieved, then the winner gets three. Then you measure the margin of victory, winner putting margin in the plus column, loser in the minus column. You add up all winner points, and most points wins, with the tie breaker being the margin of victory points, the plus points subtracted by the minus points. So a good score might be 17 games points/169 margin points. Not sure if this style can be done in your systems, but it would be the official method if you can figure it out.

I don't think you can achieve getting an extra point for the skunk. Everything else is doable though.

(Swiss style tournaments do the rest)

Beating someone by 31 or more is enough of a reward so it should work nicely.
