RULES & SCORING
HOW COINWORLDS WORKS.
Everything that decides whether a player counts, how runs are scored, how crews are ranked and how rewards are paid. No hidden rules — the numbers here are the same ones the system uses.
What counts as a validated player
A validated player is a real new player who joins through a referral link and finishes one real run. Only validated players count toward referral rewards and crew size.
- 1
Join through a referral link
The player opens CoinWorlds using a personal invite link — not by typing the site directly.
- 2
Create or sign in to a real account
They log in with Google, Apple or a confirmed email. Guest play does not count.
- 3
Reach Wave 1
They press PLAY and survive long enough to clear the first wave.
- 4
Play for at least 30 seconds
The run must last a minimum of 30 seconds. A quick quit is not enough.
- 5
Finish the run — death or victory
The run ends by death or victory with a score above 0. Quitting the game does not count.
Quitting the game does not count.
Self-referrals
Duplicate referral claims
Existing players counted as new referrals
Fake browser-side validation
How a run is scored
Score
Your in-game score from kills, survival and wave progress. Higher score = higher rank.
Time survived
Seconds alive in the run. Runs under 30 seconds don't count toward validation.
Wave reached
Wave 1 is the minimum. More waves cleared means more score and a better leaderboard spot.
A valid run ends by death or victory, lasts 30+ seconds, reaches at least Wave 1 and has a score above 0. Quitting, disconnecting or browser-side fakes are ignored. All validation happens server-side — the same check runs for leaderboards, referrals and crew stats.
Leaderboards
Leaderboards are per game. Every validated run counts. Ranking is by score, then time survived, then wave reached. You can filter by period — today, this week, this month or all-time. Your rank is live and updates the moment a run finishes.
Crew ranking — how points are calculated
A crew is the group of players invited by one inviter. Crews are ranked by a weighted average of four criteria, each scored 0–100 against the best crew (100 = best). The admin can tune the weights below, so the live values shown here always match what's actually used.
Current formula (live)
Loading current weights…
Members
The number of validated players in the crew. More real players = more points here.
Time played
Total seconds survived across all crew members' valid runs.
Total score
Sum of every crew member's best score during the ranking window.
Highscore
The single best score achieved by any crew member. One huge run can lift the whole crew.
Tip: because the formula is a weighted average, a single very high-scoring player can out-rank a larger crew if the score weight is high. Raise the Members weight to reward bigger crews instead.
Crew contests
An admin can start a timed crew contest (usually 24 hours). During a contest, only runs played inside the contest window count toward the live standings. The top 3 crews split the prize pool — 1st, 2nd and 3rd place rewards are shown on the contest bar. Standings update every 10 seconds so crews can track their position in real time on the Crews page.
Contest ranking uses the same weighted formula as the all-time ranking, so the admin's weights apply here too.
Rewards & payouts
Internal credits
Referral and bonus rewards are credited to your in-app wallet once a player is validated. No transaction ID needed.
On-chain payouts
$DRACULACAT on-chain payouts require a wallet attached, the holder to hold at least $10 in value, and a minimum $10 per payout.
No retroactive payments
Historical records are preserved. Rewards are paid for the current state only — we never back-pay or delete records.
Eligibility
Only players in the ELIGIBLE stage can be paid. Admins cannot pay PENDING or REGISTERED players.
