haunted math

[Pixie_Dust]

So I just caught 109 ghosts in a game and they gave me 395 credits. Aren't the ghosts supposed to be 5 points a piece? They weren't caught at the last second, either.

P.S. On my first game of the day there was this weird player who would not catch any ghosts but instead said things like hi, your (sic) cute, and are u taken. I said I don't play that game and did not bother to answer why. But really, isn't it against VMK values? I also saw people in the lobby telling each other their "real life" names and thought oh brother, I wonder if they will get banned. I wish people would just go to the haunted lobby if they want to play the game!

I've had this happen many times. It seems as tho if you get over a certain amount of ghosts, the points per gets lower. But I don't know for sure.

I think the points awarded at the end are only from "actual" ghosts caught, they don't include the doubles you get from getting another player (The doubles just help you win the game). Not positive about that, but I tried not getting any doubles a couple of times and the math seemed about right.
Correct me if I am wrong

Happy Boy, you are indeed correct. Only actual ghosts count toward credits (or quests). Captured opponents count toward winning the round.

another thing about doubles they don't work on quest...

That makes sense, because I did catch a lot of people in that game!
