• After looking at all the marvelous scores on different beatmaps, I've noticed something curious! Every now and again I'll see that the difference between one person's score and another person's is solely due to the extra bit of points one player may be getting over another. I'm, of course, very new to the game and don't think it'll end up being all to pertinent for me, but I can't really find the answer to this and it's irking me. I'm sure I'm just missing something obvious and that I'm probably just making a needless thread to fill up the masses... but, if not, please; enlighten me.

• Thank you for replying so quickly, GN, but my issue doesn't lie with the score multiplier, I believe, but rather what's illustrated to be the difference in the following scores. Aside from the bonus points shown, there doesn't seem like there should be a difference between the two scores. I'm curious as to the nature of those bonus points and how exactly they're attained or, seemingly so commonly, avoided.

If you were less accurate earlier on than later on, you will get a higher score in the end.

Thank you for your reply, but there isn't really a way that could be true where; in the following photo it shows two people who have both 100%'d the song but their bonuses are different and, once again, makes the place.



#1 couldn't have gotten his scores earlier on as they've both finished the song perfectly. I'm sorry if that seems obvious to you and if I seem to be straying from your point of view, but I purely wish to know the nature of that bonus score. Thank you again for replying!

Thank you very much for your response. I'm glad so many people are giving this attention! Unfortunately, I've already ruled out the possibility that the bonus score there could be related to spinners. At first because of strange numbers such as '19,556' and then from the overwhelming fact of great numbers in general. +32,018 is quite the bonus on a song that has no spinners to account for!



Regardless, thank you!

Ah! You, sir or madame, are correct! My search is complete, thank you! Now that this mess is all figured out I have to ask. What then is the difference in scores such as in the earlier picture I provided; in response to GN. When two people get the same percentage of notes hit, and are using the same mods, how does one best the other? In that screencap it shows that both players achieved a 97.70% percentage whilst using the "Hidden" and "Double Time" mods. How then did #1 end up with over 40,000 more points than #2?
