Could someone answer a few questions about point scoring please?
I understand (thanks to Strong Island) that only my top 20 hardware, top 15 global and top 10 comp points coint towards my league position, but I want to make sure I understand how the points are awarded for each submission so I don't invest my time in the wrong areas.
I had assumed that getting higher scores in more popular benchmarks won more points, but this seems to not neccesarily be the case. (i.e. getting 25th place in Fire Strike [13.8pts] would award more points than 25th place in PiFast [30.8pts]) but it doesn't... although I thought WR points would count towards league position in which case that would make sense (13.8pts + 100 for WR)?
Also, hypothetically... if I was the first person to benchmark a new CPU and obiously end up in 1st place for the hardware but that CPU then goes on to be very popular - does the number of points awarded increase as more score are submitted with the same hardware?
Sorry for the basic questions, I'm aware this shouldn't be so hard to grasp!
