Why did my Participation score drop by 149 points overnight? I know I was asleep and not participating, but I think that's a severe penalty for kipping!

Because you unsubscribed from the newsletters.
We love you 150 points less.

Ah! I changed my Email address last night - I didn't realize that unsubscribed!

No, it didn't. I smell the presence of the Evil Hamster.

Pretty much, but not as cute.
So: I've reviewed the rep logs and I see:
Subscribe to mailouts: + 50 each (ages ago)
unsubscribe from some (-50) (last night)
subscribe to one but unsubscribe from all the others (few hours ago)
subscribe to everything (few hours ago)
It all seems good so far, but still checking.

Yes, I tried as well, including setting up a new ID ("Just A Points Whore" - please delete if you wish) and tried subscribing / unsubscribing / changing the two Emails but couldn't make it happen again.
You need to check the hutches for asthmatic hamsters - I fear you have one of the Sith on board...

That's not a hamster!
That's a Squirrel[^]
This is a Hamster[^]

You poor deluded fool.
Of course it looks like a squirrel.
It is a hamster in disguise!
Should he be cornered, he can remove the squirrel outfit and hide amongst the normal hamster population.
There has been much talk of this, and we have sent one of our top agents in to investigate.

Nope - the settings page said I was subscribed to them all (except the mobile, which I assume is new). If I unsubscribe there, I lose another 200 points, which I get back by subscribing, but I'm still 150 adrift on yesterday. Damn! That's six more months before I get Gold!

Mine did the same a few weeks ago, i dare say if you trawl through the SB+S forums you will find the post i made asking the same thing. I did not change settings or emails. There was also another user who reported the same thing about a week after me.
Hmmmm.....something fishy going on i thinks. I blame the hamsters

You could write a little article on your subscription adventures and overcome your losses.

Might have to be a very little article

Didn't know that existed!
Pity only pages 1 and 2 of 49 work, and the points had gone by then...
(The unsubscribes on the first page are my trying to find out what happened after I posted it here)

well, it is new, it looks promising, there are more bugs/shortcomings than I can count, and no, I can't see your history (yet).

But when we can, we may be able to track down the Univoter. Hmmm...

Probably because Chris has an effort monitor and a user who actually dares to sleep will lose a percentage of points for every breath they take away from the site.
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.
