Actually it could be much mroe then this. It all depends on the Ratings really. And the 2nd place player could possibly end up negative.

If all four players had the same rating going in it would be pretty easy to calculate.

1st place would get 29 points
2nd place would get -3 points
3rd place would get -11 points
4th place would get -16 points

Change any of the Ratings going in though and things vary wildly. I suppose you could set the range. The most you could possibly get would 116. To do this you'd have to be in a 20 player game and be ranked way below all the other players going into the game.
