Metaverse? Very frustrating scorewise.

Or is the recalc still in progress?

Got a "ok" rank i guess in the 100's and saw it dropping the last couple of days.. sweet will play a conquest game see if i can get it back to where it was until i have more time... Submit a higher than average score for me 16000 or something and wtf? my score drops a full 20k??!?!?! enough to easily drop me to 150 something... anyone can explain ???

What game number was it? It's most likely the silly formula they use for metaverse scoring that halves your score after your 6th game.

The formula for the metaverse causes your score to drop a lot at your 6th, 16th and 32nd game (probably at each power of 2 after that as well). Game scores also "decay" after 30 days.

After you 6th game your sum of scores is divided by 2, after 16th divided by 3, after 32th divided by 4 and so on.

Example: 5 games submitted scores 100 000 each. Total scores 500 000. Submit 6th game 100 000 points. Total scores will drop 600 000/2 = 300 000 points.

Also after the game submit the individual game score will drop 5% in every 30th day.

Well, it is no longer the case: the depreciated total is divided by the number of games taken to the power 0.4. But previously, they did round downd that value, meaning an important score decrease when reaching the 6th game (since 6^.4 approx 2), the 16th game (since 16^.4 approx 3) and the 32th game (since 32^.4 = 4). But the rounding effect is no longer here, meaning that you won't longer have big drop when submitting a game on some key moments.

I notice the same.In last recalc SD has started to use x^.4 formula in every score you submitted.
