I'm not sure if this happened to anyone else, but my standard score somehow increased from 997 to 1148 (151 points) overnight without me having played any games. Now as much as I like having a higher score (and I've been winning at this score too), I don't think it's fair that my score shot up like this and I'm not sure why it happened. Can anyone explain this? I'd rather work my score up fairly than get 150 giveaway points.
