Not only Primitive will lose points (several, depending on the formula), but I will gain more Slynky. If you compute my score for the 2vs2 game with 985 (after my defeat with Primitive) instead of my current 1000, I will win several points in the bargain.
And obviously, you do not want to compute Primitive's game first, lest he takes over your nice seat at the head of the Ratings.
(And with Asmala coming, you ought to be wary Slynky, as this seat might become slippery. *Chuckles*)
