As a Bird you receive points for different actions that reflect your experience as a tester. When you are newly "hatched", you get one-time points for your first steps. By registering your first device, successfully completing tests, finding bugs or taking Bird School quizzes you can increase your points. The amount of experience points you get depends on the quality of what you submit. If the Birdmasters need you to revise your reports and Bugs, they have to give you fewer EPs. So being thorough pays off, if you want to be among the Top Birds!
