Not to be a spoilsport on the complex numbers thing, but if you are going to do the above why not define a set number of axes (say 3 or 5), and then require the average of all axes to be over 100 to win? It would be a lot simpler. Plus, (unless I'm doing the math wrong, which is quite possible) Murphy's proposed weekly change of score (p^2 + S) results in a rapidly inflating y axis. BobTHJ
