"Nonstandard points" are those not awarded for tossup/bonus play. Common examples of such points would be worksheets, lightning rounds, and written seeding rounds.

"Divisors" are the largest integer guaranteed to divide a legal score. These are not of much use to casual browsers, but they can assist when double-checking tournament results to make sure that data-entry errors have not occurred.
