POINTS DONT MATTER

Nothing in this game really matters, does it? It's just like wins. People try to get a lot for fun.

POINTS DONT MATTER

Are you serious? Points don't matter?! It costs quite a bit to sponsor your friends.

Uhm I don't see the point of this, if you were to kill someone with 700 points, you would get just as many as you would lose.

Yes, but you lose a lot now. You used to lose 2.5% of your score and now you lose 5%.

This is the same rate as the old plugin - it takes 5% of your points, or what is available, and provides it to the opponent. It's been this way since the beginning MCSG version 1, afaik anyways.

Actually, it was 2.5%. It was never 5%. I would know, I averaged like 10,000 points at one point in time, I've never lost 500 points at once, though.

It's no wonder it's so hard to gain points now...I thought it was just because there were not that many in existence anymore, but I guess that's just part of it. :l

Edit:

POINTS DONT MATTER

Well, that's your opinion. To some people they do, and that's the point of points - if they didn't matter, nobody would act like they did, so you'd never actually be able to give this response to him if they didn't factually.

More importantly, you seem to forget that sponsoring is a thing now...

This is actually true, it was 2,5% before.

That's what I said! I know my facts

Oh quit your whining. If you've had to deal with it when the cap was first removed you would have probably quit this game long ago. Way back when, when the cap was 50, it was pretty normal and I didn't worry too much about dying. Then the cap was taken off, so that day the cap was taken off I lost 389 points.

Oh, back when point distribution was the most spammed thing in MCSG.

i did deal with this when the cap was removed, but it benefited me in a better way so i wouldn't lose 50 points every time i died to someone who had 100 points lower then me
