Hears my thought for what it"s worth.
Can we not have a forum vote on it based on half a dozen nominations made by APAT. This should then cover all players that final table/cash in more than one event, plus any other significant efforts over the five days.
To try and put a points system on it when there are different field sizes and structures is very difficult.
... it will be based on ... a popularity vote.
(I"ll now hide and wait for the criticism)

Bonus points for more than one FT is good though.

Jon, wouldn"t the "bonus points" be the points they gain being on that final table ?
Maybe I"m missing something (not for the first time) but if points are only going to final tablists then I don"t see the point of bonus points.

Da Da De.....Dum Dum De Dum....

How about maybe just hand out lollies to FTer"s?

How bizarre!!
Two weeks ago a points system was proposed, 3 people responded (favourably), and then no other interest.
Now with less than a week to go we seem to have a lot more interest?
Whilst this was originally suggested as just a bit of fun... I certainly feel that all events should score points equally. After all, all four events will provide a "World Champion of Amatuer Poker".
Yes, points will be a bit easier to come by in the Omaha, Stud and Razz, by virtue of the smaller field sizes. But I see nothing at all wrong with players who are "supporting APAT" and playing all four events, having a decent chance of taking this "title" and an APAT shirt.
Those that get deep into the cash in the Main Event (ie FT) are going to be well rewarded for their prowess at NLHE. I don"t think the ME winner will be too miffed at someone who can actually play more than one poker variant winning a T-shirt!
Awarding points beyond the FTs will keep more people interested... there"s nothing like seeing your name in a list to boost the ego a little! (You can"t imagine how deflated I was the other day to find that I"m not in the top 100 APAT moneywinners!! :"()
C"mon don"t be tight... lets have points down to 16th, this will likely split any ties in the case of all four events having completely different final tables.
I"m quite willing to collate all the points and post the table each day.
