How Grand Prix points work

Each year: best percentage + 10 completion points + 20 for mastery (80%+) + 40 for a win (100%). A perfect game earns 170 points. Only completed games count; each year adds one participation and at most one win. Replays replace lower bests, never lower a best or multiply participation. Points, wins, games and average best determine rank. Exact competitive ties share a rank; gamer names only order the display.

Signed-in results across the Olympic series count. Guest results are labelled Guest; their Athens, Paris and St. Louis results count together on this device. Old five-question scores for these three years are kept in the profile but do not count as the new 20-question challenges.
