[QUOTE="DanBradford, post: 124408, member: 2331"] for me, it's mostly about trying to be as good as i can be, on a reasonable scale for all tables. i'm inside the top all time 1000 scorers on White Water, yet i only got less than 100 points. same with Champion Pub, Whirlwind, 1812, CBW, ElDorado, Dr Dude and now also Fish tales. whereas i have 582 points on TOTAN and 336 on AFM, yet on both tables i'm outside the top 1500 scorers. it's not weighted properly: even the numptiest muppet cold score 100 HOF points on the first 20 or so tables, but nowadays they swung it too far the other way. all it means is that i'm unlikely to make much difference to my total HOF score or position by even doubling my best ever score on many recent tables. so if i wanna be a points whore i will hafta go back to those early tables and try harder. which makes the weighting even more imbalanced, as soon even an epic 800 point score will be outside the top bracket. not much point in having HOF points for a table like Cactus Canyon, as my 25 points for 102M is just too mean i think. i'd like it if the points were a true reflection of the table position. so if you're in the top places you get more points, and so the more popular and most played tables should be harder to get loads of HOF points on. i'd love what netizen said to be true, that they're resetting the points goals, but the only table i know for sure they've done this on is Victory, and only because i keep a nerdy record.
