Because that one WASN'T a Tie. Fight Duration is only used if all other Points scored ended up in a Tie (like 1st example).
FYI, 2nd one, difference of 470 pts, probably breaks down as follows… 4x Attack Bonus (3x from the defender that was left standing, plus 1 other difference in Attack Bonus fight lost) as 4 x 80 pts = 320. Plus the Explore Pts failed to be gotten for that one node/defender they missed (assuming everything else was fully explored on both sides). 150 pts per Node Explore.
(edit) and note, the Defender Kills difference of 15 technically doesn’t count as points, but only infers how much difference in Attack Bonus “COULD BE”. Would be 1 difference in Def.Kills (PLUS cumulatively any other “excess” fights above 3 that it takes to kill any individual nodes). Ie, Attack Bonus max per defensive node is just 3x 80. Any extra attempts at that node above 3 continue to add to Def.Kills total, but do NOT matter at that point towards calculating your Attack Bonus Difference. That remaining node not killed might have had 14 attempts on it before they just gave up.
