Mucky gains 1 point. THINK AGAIN NUBS
HINT: The scoring system relies on exactly two factors, and I can compute the score of any post by glancing at it and thinking for about 5 seconds.

OK SO this time I won't keep track of running totals. Instead of having individual players gain points, which allows people to just stumble upon high-scoring posts and spam them, I'll simply post the total score of each post. The goal will not be to gain 100 points, but simply to figure out the rule. I'll keep it fairly simple again, and I'll start out with a...
HINT: This rule is also a "something minus something" rule but takes longer to compute and has no upper or lower limit on possible scores.
BONUS HINT: The score of this post is 24.
