.3, .2, .1

.5, .3, .1


I'm not too familiar with how it works though.  I just thought that .3, .2, .1 is the normal bonus.  Regardless, I think the bonus may end up being really important

You're off two decimals.  We expect the bonuses to be .003, etc.

OK, so your bonuses were 100 times too large. I think that explains it.

This is why you should sanity-check your orders of magnitude.  The difference between the #1 team and the #58 team in unmodified RPI is only .2394.  Giving bonuses of .5000 and .3000 would make the RPI dominated by quality wins and relegate RPI to a tiebreaker for teams with the same number of quality wins.  You might as well give bonuses of 1.000, 3.000, and 5.000.

ETA: with your bonuses, Northeastern has the best RPI in the country!
