(6 points) for player rated .9950-.1000
(5.5 points) for player rated .9850-.9949
(4.5 points) for player rated .9750-.9849
(3.5 points) for player rated .9550-.9749

(.25 points) for player rated .8350-.8599
(.10 points) for player rated .8150-.8349

-Each players score is added together (ex. 6+5.5+3.5) in order to come up with each teams score.
