1 point for your total score!

I looked at the bottom of the scoreboard and found this player named alangary. He has only 1 point! I've had some bad luck with the dice but how does someone go to only 1 point? Can you drop even further than that? What is the point of playing someone like that because even if you win it's pointless, right?

some people on here have purposely tried to get to get as low as they can (1) for various reasons. don't play him and let him win. you will lose ALOT of points - like 100.

I've played 2 games against him and the first one he lost 6 points, and the second he lost 5 points. He had 1 point before the games even started, so I'm trying to figure out how he still has 1 point, and how he was able to give away those points.

Game 2262398
Game 2262411

must have something to do with the team game aspect. there was somebody else on here who people won and received 0 points against in 1 v 1 games - he had a score of 1. when he came back to playing some games, he won 100 points a pop.

Wow!

Yeah that must have been it.

Since they divide points from teammates evenly win or lose, that must have been why.

Still really funny though :D

That's interesting. More point inflation, but this time with points just being made out of nothing.

Not many people reach such a spot to where they lose more points than they have, so I don't think it adds to inflation a "noticable" amount (sure maybe a minute percentage that someone will say it's there, but it's not something that happens every day constantly).

But yeah, I didn't think of it adding to inflation
