  1. how often are the achievements calculated? I've hit 50 cups & medals a couple times now but only held em for a day or so before someone beats a score & the achievement doesn't register. Today I made rank 195 & wondering if the achievement for top 200 will go through before more submissions come in to knock me back a bit (everybody quit submitting till I get it dammit!).

    Yah I know I need to make my scores harder to beat, but still curious...

  2. @massman, can you check this out? It posted but the score doesnt show up in the gt220 contest, just my old score. did I do something wrong when I submitted?

    Only things I can see are you forgot to open the mem tab on one of the cpu-z windows, & attaching a picture of the rig (not sure if this is 100% a requirement or not, I do it anyway).

     

    Nice score BTW.

  3. I submitted a few scores for an 8800 gts 320 mb card & while they show up in the hall of fame in the right spots for the hardware, they are coming up saying 'not FtW 420's best 3DMark Vantage - Performance GeForce 8800 GTS 320 Mb submission, only best is ranked.' even though they are my best scores submitted for that hardware. They also show no points, & my profile has not updated with the new scores since they went in this morning.

  4. Got it. After reading that I went & looked through some of that other category & they are mixed up in there as well. Looking at the screenshots GPU-Z reports them all as Radeon x1650 series whether they are Pro or whatever, since buying the card used I was going by that so guess I can't even say for sure what my own card is.

    So no problem, thanks for explaining.

  5. I realize that, but they have a section with their exact hardware specifications & instead of submitting there & competing against more submissions with their hardware & getting a lower ranking, they submit it as a (slightly) different card with much less submissions to get higher ranking.

    Does that mean I can just chose any x1650 category that will give me the best ranking whether I have that exact cards or not? You're basically saying that is OK & it shouldn't be.

  6. I was benching a new (used) card last night & submitted my scores, looking at other scores in the hall of fame I see that the top 2 guys are using different videocards than the specs for the card I'm submitting

    x1650 512 mb is the card they are submitting:

    http://hwbot.org/hardware/videocard/radeon_x1650_ddr2

     

    But x1650 256 mb is the card they are using, it has it's own section to submit to:

    http://hwbot.org/hardware/videocard/radeon_x1650_pro_ddr2

     

    Says it was checked by a moderator (neoforce), does that mean we can just submit scores for similar hardware that we can get the highest ranking for?

    (hey I'm only number 6 for my card, if I submit it as this card I can be #1 yay)

     

    Doesn't make sense....
