It doesn't make sense to me. Turn time in seconds? Amount of points will always be less than turn time, score will be negative ???
We can't substract in different measurement  ???

Uzurpator:
I think if 2 players have equal number of points for used shotguns, the winner will be considered  by less turn time

I agree, units should have been specified. But looking at the scores of submissions so far, it looks like turn time in seconds. This would make the unit-safe formula: Score = (shotguns left) * (2 points / shotgun) - (Turn time used) * (1 point / second)

lacoste:
Why is it again the turn time, not the total time? Challenge description suggests that using less shotguns is more rewarding, but its not thanks to retreat time abuse.

Husk:
negative points XD
