Low Points>High points ?
glory != your good
I’m not saying this is what happened but you could have been double capping and just circle jerking points/zerging in general. Thats the worst kind of match when you have 3/4 people hitting 1 point at a time capping it and then immediately moving to the next meanwhile the other side constantly owns 2 points because 1 or 2 people are left to defend 2 other points against 5 people. That is not winning play and people can tell when you are doing it. Its impossible to say why but its odd that multiple people would be complaining if you did nothing wrong. There can always be one jerk but you got to admit why would multiple people be complaining?
Sounds like you were just glory farming and not contributing to the team, just yourself. If someone is on a point, don’t sit there and collect the points when you could be doing something else to help the team. Go to hotjoin if you want to collect top stats and think you are best when it’s anything but the truth. Plenty of bunkers end up low score, but contribute a ton.
Points mean nothing. The other day I top scored as a back point bunker, and I was pretty embarrassed because the only reason I scored so high was that I got decapped so often and had to recap. If they won’t hit mid because they’re scared the guard sitting there is too strong he is going to get about 20 points but he’s why you’re winning the game. The guy who holds 2 of their team in the middle of nowhere for the entire match but never gets a kill is going to come out with 0 points, but he made it a 4v3. Of course if he is 1v2 on a point that’s irrelevant, because there was going to be someone on the point anyway.
It’s just not possible to come up with a scoring system that accurately represents who contributed the most to the win.
BTW most games where someone scores 200+ points are horrible. Node swapping isn’t how you typically win. There are exceptions.

so i was glory farming u say but my team wasnt grabbing points and staying and fighting at mid the whole time.. while i was grabbing the other 2 points outside of mid.. and im not helping my team lol? that makes 0 sense.. i dont really care.. we won anyway.. but to tell me im not helping while ur constantly going to mid and dieying and loosing mid while not capping the other 2 points.. yea.. i dont think so say what u wanna say.. but.. we won because i was grabbing the other 2 points.
Some of you can say what u wanna say but grabbing points is apart of winning the game.. why let the other team.. grab both points and we only have 1.. 4 ppl sitting at mid the whole time what sense does that make gods of pvp .
?
And most of them was complaining becuase i faced off with them ..and they lost multiple.. times. in a 1v1.. they dont like mesmers. meh. its w.e

If you were the only one worrying about capping side points while everyone else zerged and failed at mid, then fine, you were being helpful and you won despite your team.
The point people are trying to make in their responses is that your score in a match does not really mean anything, in regards to how well you played your part. Using it as a basis for your performance, whether good or bad, makes no sense when you consider how points are gained and what it takes to win. You may have done your best to capture and recapture side points, and ended up with the top score that game. Good for you, but it was just a coincidence. Does the guardian sitting at mid the entire game with a score of 50 mean he contributed less to the win than you? Not really, because the only points he would have gotten were from kills in team fights at mid.
" The guy who holds 2 of their team in the middle of nowhere for the entire match but never gets a kill is going to come out with 0 points, but he made it a 4v3. Of course if he is 1v2 on a point that’s irrelevant, because there was going to be someone on the point anyway."
This is so familiar ^^
-Maybe they should make personal scoring ppt in combat and on kill+/death-/res+ only.
