I looked earlier this afternoon and had a total of 399 points. Now all the games are over and I only have 377.

How the hell do you lose points?

they add points while the game is running if the team you have chosen is in the lead but at the end of the game if your team loses they deduct the points.

yep or fix it if there's a tie you only get the amount, instead of double

Wait, they don't wait until the game is over to start giving out points? That sucks.

Yeah points are added in realtime while the game is in progress, so the points given can keep fluctuating depending on which team is on top.
