Right. Those weren't the only ones.

There were a few 800k+ score swings. -6/700k on def loss of value and 2-300k off roids gained/xp.

This is absurd. The largest salvage gain I saw at this point, and the largest one all round to that point I think, was CBA's crash on golan which along with the 2 shitty other planets that landed was about a 2-2.5 mil score gain for ascendancy. Maybe it appeared slightly more in some situations due to smaller prods dropping on the same tick or something I'm not really sure.

What actually happened was that we dropped all our prods over that space of time while ND didn't so the scoregain was artifically inflated. I asked everyone to do this partially because fleets win wars and partially because I thought even the mere appearance of Ascendancy going #1 (and I checked prods we weren't actually #1 until some point during the third day of the nap ending).

Trust me on this grog, I have most of last round engraved into parts of my brain, you're a good bit off on how it went down. Our actual score gain on ND was about 70% of what it appeared (remember that's overall score gain coming from like 12 mil behind to 16/17 ahead). Of that scoregain I'd say 80% was due to ND crashing and 20% was due to people crashing on us.
