You're not alone from what I understand a lot of people are going down from 200 to 400 than they were last season despite doing better.

Sometimes I do think they taint the system to do this because they know people will play more if they have to reach a goal they had last season. This is what kinda pisses me off about competitive anything. That's why it's good every now and then to skip a season. Far less frustrating taking a break.
