You're right, your target was still computed with the n/2 formula.
I've corrected it (old target was 34558, new target is 34480)(so already reached :-) )
(you do need to solve one more puzzle to "trigger" the new bonus puzzle)

If the new maximum is 250 why am I now required to do 380 points before the next bonus?

It's 20, 40, 80, 160, 320, 400 for subscribers now.

But I'll change that soon, to max 250 for subscribers.

Please do it as soon as possible as I am about to eclipse the total before my new bonus.....Ken

It's changed now, finally:

20, 40, 80, 120, 180, 250 for subscribers

25, 50, 100, 250, 400, 600 for non-subscribers

Does this go into effect right away or only after you have reached your next bonus "point" as I just finished 44 points today, so far, and have yet another 338 to reach my next bonus "point" [confused]

It goes into effect when you reach your next bonus target.
But for people who request it, I can reduce the target accordingly (i.e. subtract 150).

hi patrick

i haven't kept track of how many points should be between my bonus puzzles, but the number now seems to be very high. i'd like to request a corrected (lower) number between them if i'm entitled to it. thanks (i know you're probably quite busy).
