Here is my heirachy of axioms. 

Each condition overrides all conditions below it.


1	a	Less than half of the players should win prizes
	b	The maximum number of players should win prizes
		
2	a	Prizes of under 1/2 of the buyin are pointless
	b	Prizes should be in millions of isk
		
3	a	A particular place (first, second, third) should receive a larger prize if there are more people
	b	Prize winners should not benefit more from the addition of an extra player more than those that placed better
	c	Extra money in the pot due to more players should be distributed as evenly between prize winners as possible
