Why don't we use a system where we score 40% Patton, 30% MP, 20% EarlPurple, 10% Butler. No doubt the following improvement will be 70% XIMP's, 30% gwnn.

Actually, why are we using the same scoring system for the whole night? We should be awarding people who are paying attention to overtricks later more. So maybe

(70-a*t)% XIMP+(30+a*t) gwnn scoring, where a*t=40% when t=t_endsession. It goes without saying that a sigmoid function would make more sense.

Don't forget to add a factor for how many minutes left in the round when done. If we are going to go to lots of parameters in the scoring, we might as well reward fast play.
