The only thing you're doing wrong is not looking at one of the several other posts on the boards mentioning the same thing! ;)

SS1000 is a veteran of the world server where we're having a few delays processing map updates and gaining points for miles driven.

I'm hopeful that it will all come good again soon.

I used to when we could rely on a points update at least every couple of days. Haven't done for ages but my return has been slim, I wouldn't be surprised if I'd missed some candies too.

One that isn't on the list (and is repeatable) is the 750pt candy for completing 500 map edits. Some of us are highly addicted! :roll:

I've been getting 4x750 candies a day. I also got my 500 point candy for being top in my state. None of these points ever hit my scoreboard.
In regards to editing points, you only get the points once. The 750 point editing candies are just a representation of the points that you already received for editing. You don't get editing points and then more editing points for the editing candy.
I'm fairly certain this is wrong. The 750 point candy was introduced after a number of us complained that editors were being short-changed. The candy was introduced to effectively double the number of points from editing!

I've tried that and beyond things that he's confirmed on these boards they're unwilling to expand much further to prevent gaming the system!

I've seen chat of some pretty scary cheating possibilities recently!Not going to divulge them here but needless to say they've been forwarded on! I don't keep an eye on the US board but the World weekly points have been getting increasingly silly for weeks!
