Someone asked a question about victory points and replacement characters, so I took a look at the relevant rules (quoted below) and noticed a different issue:

My question comes comes from the ever overlooked multiplayer games (battle royales with 3 or more players):
If character A of 100 points is replaced by characters B and C of 40 points each, what happens if two different players KO B and C?
I have a few ideas:

1. Does the first player score 40, and the second player score the remaining 60?
2. Does the first player score 40 initially, and then an extra 10 once the second character is KO’d, so each player ends up with 50?
3. Do both players get 40, since neither player KO’d all the replacement characters? In this last case, are the remaining 20 points lost, or are they distributed evenly among all undefeated, opposing players at the end of the game, like unclaimed points usually are?

My guess would be “3.”, with the 20 points being distributed. What are your thoughts?

This also seems relevant:

There's not actually a "correct" answer here. That said, the most direct answer would probably be to split the points up between the KO'd characters.

Thanks, that works
