Help Me / Formula Help - First bust-out position
« on: February 09, 2023, 02:27:15 PM »
Is there a way to determine when a person busts out for the first time (i.e., before they rebuy)?

Basically, I'm awarding points based on a players position, and I want to lock in the position at their first bust-out.
e.g, 10 players, 4 points per position - Player A if the first to bust out and then rebuys, they should get 4 points, but Player A goes on to win the tournament (first in cash) but Player B (second in cash) gets 40 points for being the last to officially get busted out.

First I tried: position*4
but it keeps you "in" if you rebuy

I was going to try to do something like this:
assign("ptrank",bottom([ugh somethingI don't know]))
if(nr=0, position*4, ptrank)

but I think if I could track "rebuy position", or change the "position" variable to get first bust out (instead of final) I could figure something out.

If someone figured this out already, sorry - I couldn't find it in the forum.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!
