161.7 Hybrid (Pachabo style) scoring – teams events
A team is awarded on each board, two HPs (“Hybrid points”) if the total of its North-
South and East-West scores is positive by more than 10 total points; one HP if the total
is exactly zero or if the margin is 10 total points; and no HPs if the total is negative by
more than 10 total points. Further HPs are awarded according to the result of dividing
the total points scored in the match by both teams put together by the total points
'swing' by which one team beats the other, rounded down to the nearest integer.
