What is the daily reputation cap after the reputation scoring changes? I've noticed that since these changes occurred I still get reputation from upvotes (not accepted answers) even after the 200 daily reputation points. Is this normal?

If you had an accepted answer or bounty awarded to you in the day at any time (that's the change) it doesn't count towards the cap.
So if you got an accepted answer when you were at 100, you can get up until 215 from upvotes.
Before you could only pass the 200 mark if you got an accepted answer when you were already at 200.

ahhh, ok. Now I get it. 200 in upvotes and unlimited in accepted answers. Thanks for clearing this up. Mar 24, 2010 at 17:54

2So it's no longer an advantage to live in a time zone where you tend to answer questions in the latter part of the day as defined by UTC (where I live, the day ends at 6 PM on standard time, 7 PM on DST). Mar 24, 2010 at 20:37
