Something that's always annoyed me about ADOM is the imbalance in the score system. Avatars (and UCG's) get significantly less points than winners most of the time. The problem is that leaving the Chain after you win causes the score to be doubled (again). Avatars never leave the Chain, so the score isn't doubled that second time. It makes sense to me that Avatars should get more points than regular winners since finishing the game that way is MUCH more difficult.

I would suggest making the score double for Avatars (in addition to the first doubling for finishing the game), and then doubling the score again. This might at least balance the system to where successful Avatars and UCG's usually get more points than regular winners.

What do you think?

IMO also you should get a higher score if you manage an ultimate ending. I think you should also get a higher score for a regular chaos god ending than a normal game but not as high as an ultimate ending. Anyone know if any RFE's have been made to TB about the score system?
If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.
