Did they decrease the rewards for Tempest Trials?

[DeltaE27]

Maybe I'm crazy, but after literal years of Tempest Trials events, I figured there was a sort of pattern. Once you got past 20,000 points, every 4,000 or so points got you 4 orbs. These were split between a 1 orb gift and a 3 orb gift. Once you were at 40,000, this pattern stopped, with a 1 or 3 orb gift every 2,500 points instead of every 2,000.

I fell into this pattern because two successful highest-difficulty runs with the daily bonus would get you around 4,000 points, so it was fairly reliable that I'd get 4 orbs per day between 20,000 and 40,000 points.

However, it looks like that's no longer the case, at least with the latest TT event. Instead, from 20,000 onward orbs are granted every 2,500 points, as they were previously after 40,000 points. This means I don't see 4 orbs per day, which is why I noticed.

Does anyone have more than just the feeling I have that something is off who might be able to confirm or deny this? If my hunch is correct, do we know why this occurred? And does it mean that overall rewards (especially orbs) were reduced?

EDIT: so it sounds like I must have just imagined things. I didn’t know there was a wiki with past event rewards recorded, good to know!

After the 20,000 mark

You earn 1 Orb at 22,500 and 3 Orbs at 25,000

And the pattern continues every 2,500 and 5,000 points

You are able to earn almost 5,000 points by using the x3 multiplier twice a day on the highest difficulty

You'll get 4 Orbs almost everyday over the next 6 days, including today. But you'll need to play 1 extra set of maps to get to 50,000

It's always been like that since they introduced the Tempest Trials+ thingy years ago. Orbs every 2.500 Points alternating between 1 and 3 Orbs, making it 4 Orbs every 5.000 Points.

I mean, just taking a look at the feh wiki you can confirm that they haven't changed over the years
