Why aren't rates above 1.0 counting for scores?

Well, 3 billion points is 3 billion points, no matter how you look at it (at least in my opinion). If you are vibrating like all hell and pushing yourself to the limit for those points, then you probably deserve that veteran title anyway.

GTS whoring takes dedication, especially if you are going to vibrate your way there. In terms of that, all this would do is give people more songs to listen to while they attack their overall rank really (as opposed to just RATO, or vROFL if they have it).

As for what mi40 said, I'm unsure about how I feel about giving more credits for rate, but I doubt crazy levels of credit boosting would occur even with that addition. Like, I would love to see you actually play EHHS 2.0 rate for even 1 hour and tell me approximately how many credits you got (x2 like the suggestion). You'd probably be ridiculously exhausted after like a half hour.

EDIT: Multiplying the base value by rates might actually be a bad idea, due to extremely easy songs that only give out a credit or two. For example, you could play power at 40x, get 1 credit, which would then turn into 40. You would get 40 credits in like 7 seconds, consistently, without all that much effort.
