Was score system changed?
Noticed that score (reputation) is different than I would expect. Bigger.
Why is it changed?
How is it calculated now? 10 for Q and 15 for A?

There was an error in the recalculation script that accidentally switched the reputation levels between questions (+5 for upvote) and answers (+10 for upvote). This has been fixed now and a full recalc has been done.

Various things, not all of them understood, affect the accuracy of the reported reputation number. For example, sometimes a post is deleted or undeleted but the reputation adjustments don't get made. A system-wide reputation recalculation updates rep numbers by recomputing all of them.
An admin ran a reputation recalc yesterday, causing some numbers to change.
The scoring system hasn't changed.
