Can someone tell me how score is calculated? And why we never get to see our score?
Well, since no one's grabbed this one...
In GOTW, the score is reflected by the year in which you dominated the map. Kill everyone by 600 AD, and that's you score, which would put you right now, somewhere in the 50'sh range of the cheiften leaderboard(let's just say).
In regular play however, score is tabbed by, and this is a guess since no one will ever officially confirm; population, culture, landmass, degree of tech, victory type, how big a space ship you build, when it arrives, how many wonders built, and maybe if you still giggle when Ghandi threatens you it'll give a bonus of 50.
Ah, re-edited... When I actually opened my eyes to re-read the post I notice Ps3. I'm sorry. Apparently there's a bit of a problem with the leaderboards on the ps3.
It's known, and being worked on. The above still applies however, but there maybe a massive delay for posting your score, if at all. Again, you have my sympathy.
I don't believe this though sometimes people with much later dates appear higher in the leader board, I posted this because nobodies had a straight answer so far.

Thanks. I'm not particularly pleased with the scoring system either, as you can imagine... and no, I didn't conquer all but one capital, IIRC I maybe conquered 1 or 2 cities, but no capitals.Too bad that even those with remarkable results, as the spaceship victory in 1600 AD in the list, will be demotivated.
On the other hand, this is a good example that tabbed leaderboard can be useful, because to do a spaceship in 1600 is not easy even with a very good start (= conquering all but one capital).
