Also, thanks a lot for doing this, it's fun.

I could do one as early as tomorrow if people are down with that.

Let's have a series - maybe 5 in total, each two weeks apart, with 5 games. So there's a grand total of 250 points up for grabs?

I like the idea of a series of these

This sounds good. And this way I can just give one prize at the end of a series rather than after every round, which my wallet won't like .

Here's some analysis of how rank relates to score

And for individual problems (1 & 2 in this message, 3 & 4 in next due to the limited number of attachments in a message)

Maybe I could throw in a free offline review for the kyu player with the best overall score?

That's a great idea.

I can see my score from here! Seriously, it begins to show that I almost never play through other people's games. The closest I get is watching Malkovich games and sitting in on the rare odd game on KGS (Last week saw a really interesting game between Alakazam and the Captain). I wonder if perhaps I should start going through some pro games, or if that's more beneficial at dan-level.

I wouldn't recommend forcing yourself to play through them in the hope that they'd help, but if you find that you enjoy it then it's definitely worthwhile at 6k.
