So if I DNF like so many others (cough cough) I have no change in my ZRS points. I take a podium and I lose points. Good thing I didn’t win this race, right?
Can anyone explain to me that this is calculating correctly?

Probably has to do with decay that was introduced recently. I assume a DNF will not stop the decay clock?
How did I lose a point when I raced a couple days ago? Is it decaying that quickly?
It depends on when your last ZRS race was, I think if it’s been more than 30 days you start to lose points everyday.
Looks like my last ZRS race (Three since then were TT’s crits etc - and they aren’t ZRS, right?) was on 9/10
So what does this ZRS really signify and do?
so this makes sense, it has been just over 30 days since the last finish in a ZRS race (you are correct that TTT’s and ZRL and many other races don’t count for ZRS so they get ignored unfortunately), you went from 556 probably down something like 12 -15 points in the last 6 days, so the 2nd place today brought you up to 555. The website shows the change since your last max score before the decay set in, so a -1 makes sense.

They really should show the drop or gain due to the event and not “since last event”, otherwise we are going to keep seeing people confused on why they are dropping points for podiums. I also think the change to decay people so much as long as someone is not specifically racing ZRS races is wonky… and there are other issues to solve with ZRS.

I agree Aaron - its hard to tell the Cats vs the ZRS. Now we add in decay (even though I race a couple times a week)… and dropping points with a podium, no wonder I am confused.
If we had a personal chart showing the adjustments to our ZRS, that would solve a lot of questions!
Thanks for your quick input.

Looks like a total mess to me, hardly done any racing and my score went up like 4 points recently. A few people above me managed to gain an extra 20-21 max that were in 1st place. Have to say it can be all about the luck of the draw, seen some races where I would have come first with my finish time.
