SC 2.1 - The Number of Match Points per Table
Results are scored by allocating match points to each score for each board.
The more pairs compete for each board the higher the match points to be divided.
The lowest point score receive nil points, the second lowest 2 points, the score above that 4 points, and so on.
A set number of match points per board are divided between the NS and EW pair on each table.
The total match points per board to be divided on each table depends on the number of pairs playing that board.

Above listing assumes that each board is played on all tables.
If at the end of the play session some boards were not played on all tables then the match points for that board are also less.
For example if a board was only played on 3 of the 4 tables in play then only 4 match points (MPs) per table are allocated for that board.
