Of course if the score cap hadn't been added, he would have gotten over 1000 points for that game.
stb was the reason for the score cap of 100 points. He had given up on all of his games and gotten down to 119 points (it was not a strategy like everyone thought at the time, he was just sick of the site). This made people realize that without a score cap, someone could get down to 10 or so points, beat a 5 players with 1000 points each for a net gain of 10,000 total points. This would also leave people with a negative score (assuming the forumla would allow that) so people would actually lose points when they won and gain them won they lost.
