Mysterious changes in score

I'm confused about scoring. My overall score sometimes seems to change without any clear reason. For example, I check my score one moment and it is 1250 (just an example), then I come back 10 minutes later and its 1232. I look to see if a game had just finished (with me loosing), but can't find any game that has just ended.

I have a large number of games underway, so something might have happened that I did not notice.

Are there any other "adjustments" that are made to scoring?

Do games show up in my "recently finished" games in order, or do some completed games show up 'down' the list somewhere, so that I don't see them.

Thanks for any clarifications.

Perhaps you are playing a terminator game? if yes, then that would explain it. You have been eliminated in the terminator game but the game is still active, hence it is shown under ur eliminated games tab. Which would also explain why you are not seeing it under completed games tab

I did a test tonight. I checked my score at 10:23 PM and listed all the games (2) that I had been eliminated from. Then after completing about 7 games I added up all the wins and losses to the score at 10:23 and the number did NOT match my current score. The same two games, were the only ones listed under eliminated games.

The only possibility that I can imagine, is that a game came to completion and either was not showing on my list of completed games, or is showing up, but out of chronological order. I'm currently in 29 active games, so its possible I missed something.

Just curious about this.

are the games completed? If you are eliminated from a game you do not lose your points until the game is completed...-0

Thanks. I've not been able to "catch" it happening again. So I may have been dreaming the entire thing.

I was hoping that someone would point out something obvious that I had overlooked. I'm still watching my score to see if anything strange happens again (not that I care that much, it's just another puzzle).

I'll report it, if I get anything concrete.

Thanks all.

currently you have 3 games where you have been eliminated.
You will lose the points when those games are finished, maybee that has happened before.
Game 5580124
Game 5641826
Game 5702961
these games are not found in complete games
