You never lose ticks. So swp does tick once every 3 seconds, regardless of when you refresh it with MF.

Total crit buffs (moonkin, scorch, tow, crit component of wild magic, loatheb spores for example), and any % bonus damage buff (sparks, thaddius) to you persist through refreshing SWP. Spellpower is RECALCULATED each time you refresh it and Earth And Moon/CotE/ebon plague apply to the individual ticks (i believe, or they may be recalculated with each refresh).

correct, and it's calculated during refresh
