Are dropped members a negative or a positive?  Sounds silly, but part of me wonders if I should be adding that number to members watching.

"Dropped Users (Weeks 4, 8, 11, 13):
-4 points for each user on MAL who has the anime under "Dropped" that week."


Looks like negative to me; see Points Criteria under Rules

@Kineta
Here's my active team on week 4:
  • Zom 100: Zombie ni Naru made ni Shitai 100 no Koto (Already used): 74,302 pts
  • Watashi no Shiawase na Kekkon (Already used): 39,433 pts
  • Bungou Stray Dogs 5th Season (Ace): 23,681 pts
  • Masamune-kun no Revenge R: 20,917 pts
  • Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Kenkaku Romantan (2023): 18,872 pts

And according to the rule stated: "Ace the anime you expect to receive the most points in your active team for this week. Correct answers give 75,000 points and incorrect answers take 5,000 points. Once an anime passes 75000 watching members, it can no longer be aced, and the next anime with the most points in your team can be guessed instead.",
I should gain 252205 pts in total but instead it's only 172,205 pts.

Obviously, the algorithm decided that my ace is wrong and subtracted 5000 pts when in fact, it's a correct choice as it satisfies these above conditions. So is this a bug or was I mistaken somewhere?

I thought so too, but now I've learnt here in the club's FAQ that "You cannot Ace the anime with the second highest points until the one with the highest points has >80,000 users watching+completed."

Ok, thanks for your explanation. I just found the rule very obscure to special cases.

How'd it go?  I did a swap for the title that had more members, less drops, and about the same amount of discussions and I plummeted. One of my "friends" who had the same score as I did last week went up.  FAL is like Wonderland to me.  Down is up and up is down.
