It seems like there *is* stratification? Check out the results from today's Daily Bulletin (pages 19-22). Some people are getting more masterpoints than those above them.

No, there's no stratification. Can you give examples of players who got more than someone above them?

The session masterpoint formula is very simple: (18*4) / (rank + 5) red points, except for first place, which gets 12 red + 6 gold. No points below 1.00 are awarded (there was an error on the first day, we published fractional awards, but that's been fixed).

Some people got bigger session awards than their overall standing points would have been.

You get either the sum of your session awards or your overall award, whichever is higher. This is the same as how ACBL f2f tournaments work. When you look at the final results, the awards shown are a mix of session and overall awards.

Ok I wondered when I saw the first day in the bulletin they showed places down to 300 for the section. so this was a mistake then? Actually I think that is how they should have done it IMHO.

They changed it for the overall awards. They were given to the top 35% of the field, so it included fractional awards.
