Ok then I need to know what the actual (for someone that barely passed algebra but can do stats) formula of how to figure what my score is (where did that number come from) and how to figure what my reward should be. Now I understand that I might not be able to comprehend all of the math but there should be a way to understand were the numbers came from.

From https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1976.msg50002#msg50002 :

Matematically said, for every submitted share, pool perform

Code:
score = score + exp(round_time/C)

round_time is count of seconds between "now" and time when round started, C is magic constant which define how fast old shares lose their value. All following calculations are using C=300, but it may be changed in the future to provide the best cheatproof/usability ratio.

And on the end of round, system calculate rewards using formula

Code:
reward = user score / total score * 25

I believe that constant C is now 210(don't remember where I read it) but I could be wrong. And last formula is 25+transaction fees
