URX Points Allocation

URX Points are URX’s public scoring currency: together with career level they define place on global and league tables—level first, URX Points in the published window second, within each level (Global ranking)—plus recognition hooks and league storytelling. They are not the input to career level—level follows a separate multi-factor model per league (Level calculation).

What earns URX Points

Principle only (weights and schedules stay in the product and Appendix A):

• Verified race participation and official outcomes—the primary source.
• Seasonal context where the rule set awards bonus or adjusted accrual.
• Special achievements when published for a season or league.

Sporting achievement remains the bulk of every serious total.

Influence and community (secondary stream)

URX also awards smaller URX Points amounts for positive influence in the community—examples include likes and comments on your activity, new athletes you help bring into the ecosystem, others who add you to their roster (choose to follow your journey there), and athletes you refer who join and participate.

Why: performance is not the only dimension of sport—how you lift others matters. If people engage with you constructively or follow you because you make them better, that is rewarded, within strict caps, so grind-chasing cannot replace verified training.

The combined ceiling from this stream stays modest relative to race-driven points; it bends totals—it does not replace them.

Challenger outcome multiplier

For RUN, Challenger athletes receive a 1.3 multiplier on the URX Points slice that rewards race outcome for a published result. Viber athletes do not receive that multiplier on outcome points. Access and mechanics are unchanged (see Athlete Status in Part III). SWIM uses the same Challenger / Viber posture where the product publishes it for that league.

Rules of the ledger

• URX Points are non-transferable.
• They are not edited by hand except under governance or enforcement.
• They may be revoked or reversed when verification or integrity findings require it (Penalties, DQ, Cards).

How ranking counts URX Points over time—especially the 365-day window—is in Global ranking (Part VII). Structural detail: Appendix A (A.2).

Sanction debits

A card can debit URX Points.

• Yellow takes 10%.
• An episode that ends in red takes at most 50% of the largest total recorded in that episode. The 10% already taken counts toward that 50%. A direct red takes 50%.
• Black does not debit points.

Each figure applies to two bases, separately in each league: the rolling 365-day total and current-season points. The debit lowers your place within your level and lowers your season standing. The total never goes below zero. The rolling debit lasts one year; the season debit lasts until the season ends. Revocation returns exactly the points that card took.
