It looks like NT Rankings working this wayEach game has the certain amount of points, which are devided to both opponents:scrimmage - 5 pointsqualification 1st round group - 20 (25)points (? not 100% sure, I started my analysis later)qualification 2nd round group - 30 pointscontinental semifinal - 50 pointscontinental final - 100 pointssecond chance - 35 pointsconsolation tournament group - 15 pointsSoon we will see World Championship points.Winner gives something between 75% and 100% points for the game and looser something between 0% and 25%. The strength of opponent influences how the points are devided. To gain 100% of points against weaker team means that you have to win the game by better points differential than to gain 100% of points against stronger team (strength is set by rank on NT Rankings).
