Ok so if reducing the no. of leagues really helps with maintenance and modding costs I'd break it down like this: Rookie - Cheap to maintain (just a 3 month cutoff), encourages fresh blood = stays Novice - Just another time-limited league, Novice Nimble comps no longer run, what's the difference to enthusiast anymore? = remove Enthusiast - Really messy to mod due to the cold climates / H2O vs. chiller issues = remove Apprentice - We need a league between extreme and rookie. Maybe redesigned a bit to include cascade? = stays Extreme - Tons and tons of activity here as LN2 is very popular. Need a league that is the "opposite" of apprentice = stays Elite - Messiest to moderate! What exactly is sponsorship? Are there enough sponsored OCers to make up a ranking? I say it's not worth the overhead = remove So I would be happy with staying with the current system or condensing the rankings down to at least 3 leagues. Fewer leagues than that would be annoying to work with and cause too many OCers to give up or not even join in the first place imo.

HWBot also sometimes restricts 3D benchmarks by CPU socket - is that also confusing to you? It's just a way of picking the hardware eligible for a stage. -

Easy solution - get more eyes on the code. One man shows are never healthy, no matter how good that one man is -

Subs either get HWpts or globals or both. They each get calculated based on ranking and there's a cutoff at X%. Some benches are weighted higher than others. Was that so hard to explain? What is there to "maintain"? Either a ranking works or there are bugs and that has a one-time cost to fix (like the "two subs from one user getting pts in the same ranking" bug that we've been waiting for a fix on for a few months now). Agreed, I doubt anyone ever paid attention to that ranking Amen! Rev6 was a necessary evil, this Rev is looking like change for the sake of change. This is by far the most destructive proposal in this new revision. Hardware point is what lets people who enjoy older hardware or don't have money compete! The community is so small that HWpts, globals and comps *all* need to stay relevant, otherwise you automatically kill off part of the userbase no matter how good (or bad) the rest of the changes are.
