Scoring systems and what they mean
Posted: Thu Apr 18, 2024 5:29 pm
Hi all! Can someone explain to me the difference between Sum of Squares scoring and Points per supply center scoring? They almost sound like the exact same thing
Site FAQ addresses that: https://webdiplomacy.net/faq.php
PPSC has been abandoned on this site. It was a straight arithmetical progression: if you end the game with 1/4 of the SC's, you get 1/4 of the points.
SOS is explained in the FAQ, but basically its a geometric progression, so better rewards those with more SC's. You saw in our last game together how many more points Italy and Austria got with 11 and 12 SC's than I did as England with 7.
