In the past a win earned 2 points, a tie 1 point and a lose resulted in 0 points received. In addition to these points, 2 points are awarded to each alliance if the robots from each alliance are balanced on the center bridge and 1 point if two robots are on the bridge, but not balanced.

So effectively, you can win and earn 2, 3, or even 4 points. Similarly you can lose and earn 0, 1, or even 2 points.
Your score during the match, however, is only a 4th tie-breaker, which doesn't matter much.
