Sometimes it takes a while for points to be distributed, especially after long races. Just hang in there and wait, you will be credited eventually.

I got no points. I just logged on to PoE and deleted my char (22:24 here so 24 mins till race ended) thought i would have my points. just checked site and no points hope i still get them though??

Whatever you do after a race: Never ever delete a character until you can confirm that the points have been distributed. Since characters are hard-wiped from the database on deletion, the game has no record that it existed in the first place. Usually, that means that you won't get points for that race

The whole system is bullshit. You could reward points the moment you do something that gives you points (like killing a boss or clearing a zone first). Not that i expect anything from a company that has no idea how to program the simplest of things.

I agree that the current ssytem is flawed. Still I just saw I still received my 22 points :) so deleting your race char isnt instant the end of it. I'm just very happy now that I at least got my points for IMO the hardest race I ever did!

I also got my 35 or so points (suddenly my points spiked up), so maybe they took longer because many people deleted their characters in this race (which makes sense because you probably start more than once) and they looked into this stuff. I still think that racing is incredible bad designed. Not just the that we still have no races that clock YOUR personal time (cutting out when you started and maybe even load times to take away the advantage of SSD or high end PC users), but everything around racing is incredible makeshift designed.

The point system is shady at best. The ladder is a mess (try to search for your place on the ladder when you are somewhere in the middle of the pack or looking for your place for a certain class). There is still no observing possible. The timings for races seem to be just randomized (in some timezones you just have bad luck when you want to catch a specific race type) and the rewards are kind of random vendor uniques (for the most part).
