If user scores move in more than one direction, as they apparently do in your
case, they are not monotonic. Monotonicity can make system design a bit easier
for various reasons.

Thanks David,
But what's does "monotonicity" mean?
User's score belongs to their action. When they win the game or sale something,
user's score will increase. When user lose the game or buy something, user's
score will decrease.

I need the question about monotonicity answered, too.
You should also know: Cassandra is not ideal for directly tracking
values you increment or decrement.
