Points per incompletion

My league gives out 0.25 points per completion and -0.25 points per incompletion. What would the most accurate method of adjusting for this rule in KUBIAK be? I'm thinking -0.25 points per pass attempt and 0.5 points for pass completion?

That should work like a charm.

Wow, that's an awfully generous rule for the QB's! Who *doesn't* complete over 50% these days? In our league, I set the numbers at +0.2 for completions, -0.3 for incompletions to set the threshold at 60%. In Kubiak terms, that's -0.3 per attempt, +0.5 per completion.

I dunno, I'm in one league with Snrub's exact completion scoring, and it creates a huge differential between the elite QBs and the 2nd and 3rd tier. Peyton instantly became the #1 player according to KUBIAK, and after the top 5 QBs everyone else was down in the weeds with the Eddie Royals. Favre and Cutler really did not fare well. :)
