As I see everyone else has also done, I played my level again for the first time since submission, and I noticed a very glaring shortcut that I did not notice at the time. Never before has the phrase "Hindsight is 20/20" been more true.

No, I was under the mistaken assumption that a cheesecake is unbaked. Stil, I hardly call its base a pastry base.

And a tart is definitely baked.

But, but... not getting a deduction means you get a deduction, but if you get a deduction for not getting a deduction, that means you've just got a deduction, which means you no longer qualify for a deduction... which means the deduction is taken away, but then, that means you don't have a deduction anymore...

I think my score is like -271 right now before judging even starts.
I regularly stream on Twitch! with other members of the talkhaus. Come watch Monday, Tuesday and Friday at 2PM for blind playthroughs and Pokémon and Touhou and stuff. Come hang out with us!

technically, overconfidence is more than confidence, so the -50 (up from the -30) seems accurate.

I believe you, Horikawa, just got -50 on your post-game level

Telling Horikawa she got -50 points is -95 points.

No, it's -102.
actually, it's -91,05, but I'll let it slide this time.

... at this point, I'm trying to go so far down into the negatives that I loop back into the positives. cos thats how numbers work, right? is it working?

Having more than seven penalties applied to your level is a 10% point reduction.

The hub will have a giant worst level section followed by the post game and nothing else in between.

in the BBC celebrity quiz show, QI, negative scores are fairly common and it isn't unheard of for a contestant to win but have a negative score.

Not-so-silently hoping that the score works like Who's Line Is It Anyway and your place is determined by rolling a 400-sided die.
