They are not public, I know, but were those sMerits a trivial function of member rank/activity?

There's this:

The exact formula was:

Code:

yearActivity = activity in the last ~year, max 378
freeMerit = the merit (not sMerit) you started with
modifier =
  0.1 if member
  0.2 if full member
  0.25 if sr member
  0.35 if hero
  0.4 if legendary

return (yearActivity/378) * modifier * freeMerit

So the most you could get is if you were a Legendary who maxed out your activity points in the last year, in which case you would get 1 * 0.4 * 1000 = 400 sMerit.

Note that I later made an adjustment giving 500 extra merit to some hero members, but no extra sMerit was given here.

I'll probably publish a dump of the initial sMerit at some point.

But: based on this, I should have received 400 sMerit. I only got 200.

If I remember correctly: in total, 600k sMerit was airdropped. That's slightly more than has been transfered since the introduction of Merit.
