Okay, here's how I'd rather see it scored:(posted 8704 days ago)You start off with some base value (100*starting level).
For each level cleared, you get 25 points minus the number of lemmings who didn't survive (so blockers that remain are still counted as surviving), and an additional point for each lemming that was actually saved.
The base value is ONLY awarded if the first level is completed.
This gives people an incentive to play some of the later levels, although it still short-changes the levels in the middle, and there's no multiple-credit requirement (if we do still want that, we can take each credit as a separate game and then the final score is the average of every game - which is how we should be handling multi- credit recordings anyway, in my opinion... yes, it's great that you broke the 1st place score on your third credit, BUT your other two scores sucked, and you should still be held accountable for that).
