Ok, but why? I really don't see a chance even for one of them (and I'm 3th in my main bracket currently) Because new people are starting the overall event, and getting into your bracket for the sub-missions. This causes them to get massive rubberbanding points until they catch up in the overall event. They will be able to score many more points than you will be able to in any single submission. I doubt that anyone who started right away and doing well in the overall event will take top 2 in a submission.

Which means if you rubberband up in one, you're not going to be able to rubberband up in another. So decide how you want to split the points basically.

I mean I have only 1700 points in total and the top people in my sub bracket have over 4000. Should rubberbanding not support myself also? It should be tied to all brackets but it seems only to be tight to my bracket alone and so I'm getting a lot less points

It should be tied to all brackets but it seems only to be tight to my bracket alone and so I'm getting a lot less points The rubberbanding is always in effect, it is just based on the overall event and the submissions don't seem to have any affect on the points for that sub-mission. The rubberbanding takes time to kick in - only on a refresh as far as I can tell. If you're low enough you'll eventually see repeatables going for up to 200 points, which is what I saw at one point.

Last night that mission was worth more than the other two, but mow all three are the same for me, so yeah.

Perhaps that will make it clearer I joined and played the very first mission right as the event started. I then didn't play a mission until this morning. When I started playing this morning, my first mission was worth 509. I've now played through 9 of the 11 Alaska missions, I'm in 2'nd by a hair with 3449. Now I don't know if I've "wasted" my rubber banding on Alaska... I'm still not positive how that works lol, so I'm holding off on completing the rest until I can figure that out.
