Arena Mode: Not awarding Points?

So, I tired arena mode for the first time today. When I entered the first round it said my reward was 100pts and some bonus points if I could finish within 1.5 minutes, or something like that. It also said I would be able to choose one piece of armor.

So, on my first try I died. I realized an archer was shooting and it was too late. On my second attempt I survived, but I was not awarded any points. I went on to round 2, again the screen came up saying I would get 0 points for completing round two. I survived round two and surely I did not get any points, all I got were orens and a piece of armor.

Am I understating the rules incorrectly or is there something going wrong?

When you die in the Arena you can still play but you will not get any points after you die. The Arena is a skill Test to see how much points you can get with out death. no checkpoints or saves either

like Maxx01 said, if you wanna earn points you have to go back to the main menu and start arena mode again

Normal was a struggle. I think I managed to stay alive to maybe the 10th or 12th, but it was tough. Tried it on easy and everything fell over. I managed to get 24k or something, which I didn't get anywhere close to on the other difficulties. The trade-off is how long it takes.

Oh, I didn't realize you had to go all the way back to the main menu to start the arena over. Well, thanks everyone.
