I won 2 games back to back against actualize. I won 0 points on both games. I checked and he still has 34 or so. Why did i get 0?

Thanks!

First off, use the form. Second off, this should have been in Suggestions and Bug Reports or even Q&A would have been a good choice. Lastly, it's because of the way points are calculated. He has 34. You have 1500. Points are calculated by this formula:
losers points/winners points * 20
34/1500*20=0.453
Therefor, you get half a point for winning each of those games. Since you can't get half a point, it just rounds down.

...what happens if he reaches 0?

he has one point left and loses to someone who has 40 points. the winner would get half a point which would round up to 1, forcing the loser to lose his last point.

....what if he wins then? its (losers score/winners score)*20, but you can't divide by zero.

You can't get lower than 1 point.

DISREGARDING the 100 point max, it is currently possible to get 3579 points in a game if poo-maker played the 22 point guy
