I think this is a bug (but not a serious one). I recently crossed the association threshold of 200. This adds a hundred "bonus" that I had not expected. But the bar graph icon showed 1800. Not important, but a little surprising to think for a moment that I had jumped from 198 to 1802 for no reason!

Agree it's weird, but totally by design.– Shadow Wizard Is Sad And AngryDec 3, 2014 at 8:36

The green thingy in the top bar shows the total increase of reputation over all SE sites. If you opened accounts on 18 SE sites and then you got the association bonus, that's 1800 in total bonuses.

OK, but it still seemed weird. And considering that it was below 200 on each site, each gets a bump of more than fifty percent. Several hundred percent on the site where I seem to be quite UNpopular. :-)– WGroleauDec 3, 2014 at 6:52
