Points = Wins + 0.1 * Games.

The "half-wins" are for entries to sports games after the start of the event. 



A few tidbits I found interesting:

The field as a whole is winning 54% of the time.

The leader (Billie_Dawn) is winning 61% of the time.

Everyone with a large sample size (played at least half the games) is winning at a 50%+ clip.

In the 46 eligible over/under games so far, a strategy of "Always Be Under" would've won 27 times (59%).

"Idol" surprisingly not adjusting up in the finals on Wednesday was a lucky break for the unders (including me).

You've gotten many such breaks (or are just skillful), given that you're pulling away from me and CarShark.
