@alynurly This would mean that all regard for handicapping goes out of the window. So it would not work.
The whole point of a FFA game is that you gain/lose points by looking at your rating compared to your opponents' ratings. If you're high rated, you'll lose many points and gain few and vice versa.
If you make 2nd, 3rd and 4th all lose the same number of points, the top players gain an advantage because they'll lose minimal points even if they come last.If you make them lose no points at all, then people's scores will keep on increasing forever.
On FFA we usually tend to play together with others even if we don't mean to cheat. Because that's the best strategy to earn points. Usually winner gets lots of points, second player earns little bit, third player loses little bit but 4th player loses a lot . But if you start treating 2nd, 3rd and 4th the same there will be no point in playing together. So my suggestion is to remove points on same level for all three. What's your opinion and comments about that? Thanks
Here's the example:
Lets say these are the players at end of the game (and my imagination about how much points they should win and lose):
