Question about Greenlight.com

How do the points work?

How do you earn points?

I can't seem to find anything on their site that explains how you earn points for your team in the league games.

They take the top 5 members of each team and the miles they put on are the teams points.

So you have to be part of a team to have points.

But you still can keep you personal stats which will tally your miles.

I understand that part. What I am asking is how they assign the points. I am on the bike forums commuters team. When I look at the scores in a game, I see 2 riders with the same average daily rides but with a different amount of points. I am trying to understand how it works.

Daily average rides are just that: averages. Points are determined by how many miles you ride inside of the given league games. Each mile is a point. Averages have nothing to do with it, they're just a statistic. Not even sure why they're there.

EDIT: I just found out something curious. I did a recreational ride yesterday, and I was wondering why it wasn't counting towards the league. Turns out I forgot to tag it.

Don't forget to tag your rides, kids. A ride with no tag won't be counted towards leagues.
