50 points, 62 points, 80 points (when max is 100 per day), etc.

If I were to only cast Chocobo Mazurka once, and do nothing else, how would that supersede every other song, and action? I suppose I can try that, but I am not understanding how that is going to increase my credit contribution.

A picture:
Right, there's your problem. "You will receive 30 Domain Points as a reward." That is what you get, whether you take one action or a hundred. The only way that base value increases is if the server as a whole defeats the Domain Invasion super boss Mireu enough consecutive times; it caps at 50 points per dragon.

The only modifiers to that base value are number of people participating in the Domain Invasion (1x to 2x), whether you landed the killing blow on the final mob of wave 1 (2x), and whether you landed the killing blow on the dragon (2x).

In your screenshot there, one other person was at the fight (1.2x) and you finished off the last mob of wave 1 (2x), giving you an overall x2.4 multiplier for those 72 total points. Had one other person been there, that would have been enough to put you at your daily limit of 80.

When the server's winning streak is long enough to get 50 Domain Points per dragon, the daily limit is increased to 100... and at that point, if there are six people at the fight, that's worth a 2.0x multiplier all on its own, giving you your 100 points just for participating regardless of what you actually do. If there are not six people there... well, that means just showing up to the next fight and doing something to prove you're there to make up the difference.

Your evaluations during a Domain Invasion - damage dealt, damage taken, critical hits, buffs, healing, and I think a few other categories - will influence the capacity points and escha beads you receive, but not the Domain Points. Those are fixed, and can only be improved by hitting the multipliers.
