I got 3 points when I answered a question. Why ?

I have thought about this and I am none the wiser. I have answered questions on many topics, and I have been given 2 points for an answer and occasionally 10 points for a best answer. But I have never been given 3 points before or after that day.

    You probably received 2 points for the answer & another 1 point where someone must have given a thumbs up on a best answer you already received.

    Are you sure? You get a point for just logging in, could that be where the extra point came from? also, if you choosean answer as best answer to one of your questions you get 3 points.

    You're probably mistaken. if you answered a Q and it said thanks for answering you've got 3 points, then it's possible it was slow in alerting you to the one point you get just for signing in.

    I wish I knew but I'm new on here and I don't know.

    That said, I think you've lost 5 points asking this question. :(
