Default Points ruling on Race 11 . . . winning dead heat

Dear Plenilune: after JB snapped me out a coma on the scoring for points, please ignore all the crazy talk below. Thank you, luv you too!!!

Dead heat 3/5-7-4 order of finish, not sure if I have ever this to score. The following seems appropriate to me. Anybody else have remember how this was done before or perhaps a better way.

So the 3 and/or the 5 are first for 10 points
the 7 is second and the 4 is third

Those with the winning dead heat pick get hurt a little. Here's my logic which is not always that logical.

3/5-7-4 is ABC = 35 pts
A B C

3/5-4-7 is ACB = 30pts

3/5-7-X is ABX - 25pts

3/5-4-no place is ACX = 15pts

3/5-no place -7 is AXB or AXC = 12pts

3/5-no place-no place is AXX = 10

Same logic goes for CAB, BAC, BCA or CBA are all 20 pts

Good luck Plen. You may have this already figured out. If so, please forget all of the above and we'll accept it what ever you have.
