Inevitable punch question

Greetings,
If I reached the 15 punch level, do only 3 punches carry over, or does 1 punch for level 1, 2 punches for level 2, and 3 punches for level 3, for a grand total of 6 punches at the start of the next week? (Making level 1 a gimme for the next week...?)
The latter would be awesome, but the former is entirely understandable. I'd just like to have an idea how hard I should push for that 15 level early on. :). If it's cumulative, it nets a bigger long-term win, obviously.

As far as I am aware, it's the former - a maximum of 3 punches are carried over :)
My question about all of this is, why so many punches? Why not include some kicks into this brawl? :)
I agree, this is gross wilful discrimination against karate fans. :)
Cheers,
Alex.
Also,
How long will the items remain punchable?
Last year it was 2 days I think, I assume this year is the same.. if it's any different I'll find out and let you know :)
