Not all games have this stat, so you need to give some more context (like which game this is for) which will allow someone who plays that game to answer this question.

I have not gone through all 1200+ games, but it is at the least extremely common. Cubirds has it, Lucky Numbers has it, Can’t Stop has it, Abandon All Artichokes has it, Mapmaker has it, 6 Nimmt has it, Chakra has it, Tokaido has it… I could go on, but it appears I already have.

Thanks for that information. So what does it mean?

I have no idea. I’ve wondered this for a long time. It’s been mentioned on these boards before (but “time”, “bonus” and “number” are all too common words so you can’t search for it!), and I’ve yet to see anybody with an actual answer.

I know as much as anyone else. Perhaps it's some internal score used to automatically adjust the different real-time speeds?
