Growing Ladder Points

A faithful JamLegend user recently wrote to us asking: "My ladder points don't grow up... why?"

Ladder points are awarded for beating the computer.  When you choose "Play VS Computer," you'll be matched up against either Chrys or Roxanne, the two JamLegend bots.  You will earn ladder points by beating the bot, and how many you earn depends on how much you win by.  But be careful, because you'll lose ladder points if the bot beats you!

Why is this?  Many users did not like always having to face off against *Chrys or *Roxanne, because of the possibility of losing ladder points.  This was especially unfair when playing a new song for the first time.  So, we give you the option to keep the the game fun for those who want to play for ladder points and for those who want to play a song without being in a competition.

None of these changes affect your level (the number 10 below) or your XP (experience points). You'll still earn the same amount of XP per song whether you play alone or against a bot.  Hope that makes sense to everyone!

why is it that i only get 250 ladder points when i beat the bot on normal tap now? is there some level to the points where once you reach a certain point you stop getting points for the easy songs??
Oh, you should say that in the game! I thought this was only to hide the "... takes the lead" messages.
I asked too , now I got it thanks :)
