Are challenge wins (When you're the one who got challenged) no longer counting as bonus points for that player? If so then my score is correct. But otherwise I should have full bonus from my defeat of Justin when he challenged me.

I was not aware of that rule. It won't affect the rankings at all, so if that is how it was before, it will continue to be so. I will fix your score accordingly.

So you get points for each challenge game win, regardless of who challenges who?

No. You only get points for winning the challenge that you make. If you win a game that someone challenges you on, then no one gets points (unless it is a mutual challenge).

I thought that if you won a game where you got challenged, you got bonus points.  Actually, I thought that you got bonus points no matter what if you got challenged (1 or 2, depending on whether you won or lost).  Am I wrong?

Right, that is correct. I just meant that you don't get the three points for an official win.

This is the way it has been done in the past.

Person who challenges:
wins - they get 3 challenge points and 0 bonus points
loses - they get 0 challenge points and 0 bonus points

Person who is challenged:
wins - they get 0 challenge points and 2 bonus points
loses - they get 0 challenge points and 1 bonus point

The second part looks like bonus games.  Is that the valid format.  You get points regardless if you win or lose when you're challenged?

When you are challenged, it is like a bonus game played for you (which provides incentive for you to play and accept a challenge) but it is an official game for the challenger (he gets three points if he wins, none if he loses). I didn't realize that rule when I started, but I will certainly maintain it.

I update the scores once a week, usually either Monday or Tuesday. I will make sure you have all of your points then.
