I did 15 encounters so far today, all encounter were atleast 10% weaker then they should be some were more then half weaker. Giving me poop rewards. If I see an encounter I want to do that encounter at that power not half of its power.

I totally agree, I run into too many encounters that end up being wayyyyy under the posted event power which now gives me less of a reward. From now on I probably wont even bother with the bigger encounters and just do the smaller ones as I seem to get better payoffs and a less likely chance of losing ships.

I did these last night:
makes no sense 2 me, I do 1 with 213 bill fleet power & get 222 turns - I do 1 with 47 fleet power & get 450 turns and on both i destroy the entire armada
 
I just did this one before this posting:
Event power: 453,716,966,811 fleet power
Incoming transmision!
Thank you for your help commander, you have been awarded 45 turns.
Unidentified Fleet(#) lost more power than you during battle.

News
Silverthorne(#30399) encountered the Black Hole, engaging 38.375.948.226 fleet power.

I used more than 45 turns to find this encounter, 15 to do it, which is a waste of turns. I know a lot of people have been having problems especially with BH's.

I think it has to do with your actual power. Even if you take on an encounter of 300M power, if you only have/destroy 100M power, you only get 1/3 the reward. I could be wrong, but that's what it seems like to me.
