Hey Garner,
Thanks for getting back to me, my points updated this morning! I got an email first thing. I was surprised, it took a week to change. It appears to be resolved!

I've been level 5 for 2 days now. I just now got the email notification that I reached level 5 but when I go to my online profile it still shows I am level 2 @PaulPavlinovich

Hi @Anonymous,
Recently, quite a few LGs are reporting their LG points (and Level) as find in their LG Homepage is lagging behind as find in Maps contributions page.
Please allow 48 hours for the LG Homepage figures to get sync from Maps.

Hello @rose1 , Usually it takes 48 hours to synchronize Maps and Lgconnect. The same thing is happening with me too. It will get updated, don't worry just keep on contributing and it will level up eventually.

Please bear with me..
I have read two similar queries ( link 1 and link 2) and their solutions by @JeslynL and @LuisRG. I may be repetitive, but please..
So, I can understand they are two different metrics. My Contribution refers to total points and LocalGuides homepage or desktop shows Contribution per type.
But I have a doubt. So, according to this (desktop or homepage), I have made only 1 Review, right? But is that true?
I can calculate I have 26 reviews and each yielded me 6 points. So, my contribution tab shows 26*6 = 156. Absolutely correct!
But is my LocalGuides homepage or desktop showing the correct figures? One more thing as @davidcox pointed out on time and as it is written on LocalGuides homepage "Points may take around 24 hours to update.", it's already 24 hours.
Just don't get angry if I'm re-posting something similar. I'm a newbie here.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
