Why did my alt randomly drop 40 points in between two matches that I had right after each other? (I can provide a screen shot but the second match I won and gained 11 points so it looks like I lost 30)

Is there a maximum amount of points you can lose when you lose a match?
If only we had a whole list of Frequently Asked Questions...WAIT--
PS! FAQ said:
Q: Why did this user gain / lose so many points at once?
A: He had a high deviation. The more you play, the less deviation you have. Deviation shows how much your score is prone to change after a battle.
But anyway, from what I understand, what had happened was:
- you had high deviation, or at least noticably higher than your opponent. :/
- you lost (I assume), and due to your high deviation, you lost a lot of points :C (new accounts have an extremely high deviation; so if it was a new-made alt, that may be why it lost a bunch)
- But luckily, since you have a high deviation, it should be easy to gain back those points :D
Disclaimer: I'm not a programmer/I know nothing about computers or programs, etc. So if I'm totally off, someone smart feel free to correct me :X.
As for any maximum amount of points you could lose, I don't think there's a set limit that'll actually be used (There may be one just to avoid someone abusing a possible glitch in the system).

I've been gone for a while, but previously when you were in a different tab and the notification that it was your turn popped up you were able to click the pop up and it would take you to the game. It doesn't anymore. Is that an option that I can't find or just removed completely?
Um... I don't remember that ever being a thing...If it's not an option in the PS! settings, (which it very well may be, I suggest you check to see) could it be a part of your browser's settings (something probably like "Allow pop-ups to link you to different webpage" or similar)?
If it isn't a part of your browser's settings, I would think it would've been removed (although I didn't know that happened; I'll test next time I get a chance.)
Hopefully I made sense/didn't make a fool of myself. To both you guys, I hope I helped! ~^_^~
