The Point System is now fixed to give points for the top 8 finishers in every event. Any events that have more than 8 players and a player that finishes in 9th place or worse will NOT receive any points.
The maximum number of points that can be obtained for any single event is 16. 2nd place to 8th place change in 2 point increments. 2nd place = 14, 8th place = 2.
The overall leaderboard is an average of all points received throughout the year. Your ranking is then dependent upon you playing in 3 or more events.
