Are you certain you don't have an ancestor named Jackie? ;->=
The whole issue of points is difficult at best anyway; it certainly
ignores
a number of other issues that pop up constantly from speeds to fix
tables
to 'race' balance vs 'open' that change point values.
However, they're nice to get ball-park balanced games. I just don't take
them as 'biblical', no matter how many numbers Oerjan crunches.
