Thanks man
Had a bit of leftover LN2 from my 955 run so thought I'd have a little fun with some original Phenom overclocking.

For years (or atleast as long as I have been around) people have screamed at the unfairness of HWBOT putting people with big money and big cooling systems into the same league as people trying to get along with air or water.
HWBot, after a good while took notice and with this rollout seperated the leagues in order to give users on air and water a chance. It was a welcome addition at first, with lower budgets and cooling system finally able to compete in their own right.
As far as I understand it, the WR points are kept out of the enthusiast league, because one would imagine, that with only air and water to compete with, that you just got that WR with sheer money spent on hardware (not saying the results weren't earned). That takes away a level of competetiveness for everyone else in the enthusiast league, which is meant to be there for anyone and everyone to be competitive in.
You may think it's unfair you don't get your big WR points, but as I see it, the enthusiast league is serving it's very purpose by not awarding you those points. You're one person, and while I can see your point, how fair do you think everyone else will think it is in the enthusiast league when they see they'll need to spend big on hardware to compete?
This is all just opinion and ofcourse based on my understanding of the purpose of the enthusiast league, which could be way off or ill explained but I decided to share my input anyway.

Remember to post your results
Nice carpet you have too
Haha, didn't notice that when I looked the first time. Nothing wrong with a little carpet and toy car adventures while you run your benches

I checked back into hwbot today, as I regularly do and couldn't help but notice that one of my submissions had dissapeared from rankings, and the points I had earned from it had been deducted from my overall score.
Not sure what's up, but if I've done anything wrong, or it's been removed I'd appreciate a reason as to why. As far as I can tell, I've abided by all rules and have a legit SuperPi submission.
I've also tried editing and forcing recalculation, nothing puts it back in the ranks.
Here's the submission I'm talking about: http://hwbot.org/submission/2207626_jjjc_superpi_core_2_e7400_2.8ghz_9sec_422ms
Thanks in advance for help.

Cheers bro!
I'm not with team.au but I am Australian so I guess that counts for something

Hit the exact same speed as I did with my E8400, perhaps an FSB wall @ 624?

The use of Dry Ice suggests to me that it wouldn't be allowed in the enthusiast league.
