I believe the percentage is based on how much faster they are then a "target" score so the number is not arbitrary nor set by any of the competitors. I like your Idea of format better, but leads to the great chance of a tie.
The target score is set by someone (either picked or benched), thus is therefore by definition 'arbitrary', even if it relates to a score someone got. It means in the end that more time+effort+skill into bench A means more of a % rise over time+effort+skill into bench B.
I don't know why, but in general US sports seems to be afraid of a tie.
Elsewhere in the world, it's regular to get a tie.
But just because you get a tie in a round doesn't mean at the end people will tie.
If two people end on the same points, it comes down to who had the most 1st places.
If that's the same, then it comes down to who had the most second places.
And so on.
This isn't a radical idea, or something I randomly thought of. It's common in racing and other sports (link: rule 7.2, link, link).
Just sayin'.

Then isn't it all arbitrary then to who sets the 100% score (or wherever it comes from)?
If we put FS stage to 10000000 = 100%, then 1000pts is 0.01% and positions change.
In sport it's all about who finishes the line first over a number of rounds and gets points, not who had the fastest overall time across each track.

Edit: I approve of the front page scoreboard. Need it for final few days of ProOC.

Seems rough...
Lucky n00b got 1st, 1st, 6th, overall 2nd
T0lsty got 5th, 9th, 1st, overall 1st
Congrats to all

Just a thought. I wanted to see the best records for a bit of hardware (Z87X-OC). Would it be great if the item page ( http://hwbot.org/hardware/motherboard/z87x-oc/ ) listed the best scores (in terms of points, WR+GL+HW+CP) that people had achieved with it?\r\n\r\nThat also lends to the following scope: a WR page showing what hardware had the most WR / WR Points. I bet vendors would love that.\r\n\r\n-borandi

Change your BIOS to only run single core, or change msconfig. Multithreaded scores take a dive sure, but if you're the only one submitting...
Basically you need a script to change the affinity to a single core at that point in the bench.

Also, no CPU-Z tabs in your screenshot

Yes, the multiplier is for the number of physical sockets on board. 3820 is one socket.

No worries I already put it back in the cabinet to continue collecting
dust
Send it over here, I'm sure I can find a use for it

He had two CPU-Z windows open, not in the screenshot for some reason
-
Out of interest, is it new scores only this time, or are older submissions valid?
-
Is it some form of internal RAID doing the AMD bug?
-
Can change the CPU listing now

but, how can i do it??
Easy. Read the post that already answered your question. Apply common sense.
You need to slow it down. Transferring a file or just about anything should be enough -
shiiit if I hadn't been moving house and relying on dialup speeds
Reserve me a spot just in case it falls through -

http://valid.canardpc.com/a/0xl674\r\n\r\nFrom the ever popular SGS2.\r\n\r\nNow that CPU-Z on Android offers validation, are we accepting CPU-Z Frequency submissions for these?
-
If you're going for BCLK submits, keep one thread loaded. It'll accept the highest CPU Frequency per CPU, or wait 10 mins to cool.

Nah, that wouldn't need a tie breaker. The first person beat the second in two out of the three benchmarks.
