The weekly cap on points for each type of activity is based on your activity for a particular week. It's not based on when the show takes place. And points don't carry over to the next week. For example, if you post 15 photos in one week you will earn 100 points for that particular week because the cap is set to 100. You will not receive points the following week for the additional 10 photos uploaded.
