The Points:



"Percent" is Your Score divided by First Place's Score times 100 rounded to a whole number. In other words you will gain points just for increasing your score even if you can not beat the score above yours.

• 1st place = Percent + 100
• 2nd place = Percent + 90
• 3rd place = Percent + 80
• 4th place = Percent + 70
• 5th place = Percent + 60
• 6th place = Percent + 50
• 7th place = Percent + 40
• 8th place = Percent + 30
• 9th place = Percent + 20
• 10th place = Percent + 10
• 11th and beyond = Percent + 1

You gain 10 bonus points if your personal best score also clears (beats the game) the game.


To discourage players from waiting until the end of the year, there will be a small bonus for submitting early. You will gain 1 point for every month (30 days) that your best score ages. If you submit a new personal best the clock resets. A score submitted Jan 1 is worth 12 more points than a score set in December.


Good luck and happy gaming!
