# RANKING

How can I scale the ranking?

Your position in the rankings is directly influenced by the number of TOM Points you farm during the season (even if you spend them in the shop). Here’s how it impacts your gameplay and rewards:

### 🏆 The Essence of Competition:

* **Earning Points:** Every action you take, from tapping for TOM Points to completing tasks, referring friends and automatic farming with the upgrades from the store, contributes to your total points.
* **Spending Wisely:** Interestingly, spending points in the shop for upgrades doesn’t detract from your ranking. This design encourages strategic investment to enhance your earning capabilities without penalty.
* **Climbing the Ranks:** The more points you farm, the higher your rank. It’s a simple yet compelling motivation to stay active and strategic in your gameplay.
