As most of you know, I'm new to Folding, so i appologize if this question has been asked before. I was curious to know how the scoring works.

This is the reason I ask:

Place: 1 hardass Score: 799.3 WU's: 286
Place: 2 JBELL Score: 570.39 WU's: 328

Well, as you can see, Hardass has more points, and about 40 less WU's... so how does it work?

I believe that HardAss has processed many Protein A molecules which take a longer time to finish a single WU and gets credited mored. I think the forumla for points is processing power X time spent. Not exactly sure but it would make sense. United Devices gave points using that formula.

Each wu has a point value like a proteinA is worth 5 and a PolyQ50 is worth 1.9 and so on. So i have done less but the ones i did are worth more points. Look at this. (http://folding.stanford.edu/psummary.html)
