Mar 18, 2017 at 10:40 comment added MadHatter Fair enough. I wouldn't have done that - as I said, net upvotes seems to me unambiguous and reuses an existing, well-understood term of art, which I find much better than defining a new term which is then hardly ever used - but it's not my site.

Mar 18, 2017 at 10:23 comment added MadHatter Ah, OK, that deals nicely with that; I had the wrong end of the stick. Does that particular use of the word score crop up anywhere else on SF? I can't help feeling that net upvotes would be a lot less mysterious a term. Either way, thanks for clearing that up for me!
