How Noillirk scoring works

Six bands, then a zone table. Multiplying the score by ten metres gives the wrong altitude.

By Noillirk Field Guide | Updated | Independent, unofficial guide

Documentation and arithmetic checked 22 October 2026. Daily’s ten-metres-per-point sentence conflicts with its own zone ranges and share example. Interpolation below is our estimate, not a verified game formula.

The six bands

In Daily’s official game, only first place is Sky High. Places 2–4 are Jet Stream and places 5–9 are Cloud Nine. Off-board answers cannot exceed 32; the lower bands pay 16, 8 or 4. A rejection earns nothing, but you can retry before time expires. A final miss or Pass is No Lift, 0.

Published altitudes conflict with a flat rate

Daily’s rules guide says both ten metres per point and 700 points at 14 km. Those statements cannot describe the same direct conversion. Its zone table starts The Jet Stream at 635 points and 11 km, while its sample share gives 440 points at 7,063 m. We report the conflict instead of presenting a guessed formula as official.

For a reading aid, interpolate between published boundaries. The Canopy runs from 80 points at 18 m to 120 at 45 m; the midpoint, 100 points, estimates 31.5 m. At 440, interpolation between 385 points at 5,000 m and 465 at 8,000 m estimates 7,062.5 m, matching the rounded sample. That agreement does not verify the formula everywhere.

At 700, the same method gives about 14.47 km, whereas Daily summarises a perfect climb as 14 km. The exact conversion and rounding are not independently confirmed. The calculator estimates only the published early ranges; 700 is the Daily/Classic score cap, not the 710-point end of the calculator’s range. Use the zone list for named thresholds.

Altitude from a score

Works from 0 to 710 points, the stretch where Daily printed metre or kilometre floors we could convert without guessing. Above that, use the zone table.

Questions people actually ask

How does Noillirk scoring work?

Accepted answers score 100, 64, 32, 16, 8 or 4; a miss scores 0. Seven solo prompts make a maximum of 700. Daily describes that as 14 km. Our altitude calculator is an estimate, not the confirmed game formula.

Is 700 points 7,000 metres?

No. 7,000 metres is Krillion’s perfect dive. Noillirk’s perfect 700 is 14 km on Daily’s own pages.

Do faster answers score more?

No. Daily says there is no speed bonus.
