Sure - I know that the Tournament Organizer
may come up with any method of scoring
and of computing the average plus.
I know that the Tournament Organizer may
further define what exactly is meant by the equivalent
of a 60% session in IMPs, BAM or whatever.

But when one uses a phrase "a 60% session
(or the equivalent in IMPs)" without any further
clarification one creates something that is
semantically null.

Because currently if the remarks in paranthesis
didn't exist at all we would be exactly in the
place as we are now - the Tournament
Organizer wuold have to define a specific method
of his own, agreed? Just like with avg+ in BAM.

So this remark in paranthesis has no meaning at all.

I said "in the previous version".
