That’s crazy looking. Math is so hard.
So when you run that as a test it gives you the points I listed above? Won’t be a PC until Tuesday to try it

Ha! Yeah, it looks worse than it is -- here's the breakdown:
(n-r+1) establishes your base points, based on finish. (number of entrants - rank +1)
20th = 1 pt
19th = 2 pts
...
2nd =19 pts
1st = 20 pts
the switch statement says for each rank (r), give additional points.
1st = 15 additional points
2nd-4th = 10 additional points
5th-10th = 5 additional points
So, it would result in this:
1st = 20 + 15 = 35
2nd = 19 + 10 = 29
3rd = 18 + 10 = 28
4th = 17 + 10 = 27
5th = 16 + 5 = 21
and so on...
