  1. The door was opened by allowing command line adjustments to start. Changing the rules on it mid competition seems unfair. Sure make the rules clearer but it should be done after the competition, especially since its obvious Mr. Paco didn't hide the fact in any way, shape or form. The command line adjustments shouldn't have been allowed to start (in my opinion) but once allowed changing it mid-competition isn't all that reasonable. It seems more like those that didn't know about the tweaks complain about how unfair it is, instead of what they really mean, "It is unfair that I didn't know about it"

  2. If the scores were legit at the beginning of the competition changing it half way through seems unfair as well. There are always tweaks that some people know about and others don't. Changing the cmd line is changing the default settings so that first rule is already out the window. That was approved at Country Cup so arguing about cmd line tweaks now seems backwards.

  3. I don't have a problem with the rules, certain chips will always be better. By having a pool of (in the 6000 series) 19 dual chips to choose from would allow for more people to be competitive. By excluding the majority of the chips (and I don't mean that the 6320 is just a poor choice against a 6850 but that the very best dual on LN2 can't even catch a quad on Air) you are essentially making the rules read: Use only Q6400 - not even list on HWBOT, Q6600, Q6700, QX6700, QX6800, or QX6850.

     

    Again I don't have problem with it, I own both, just trying to make a point that by limiting the contest to duals would have provided a wider field of scores and a great deal more interesting scores since all the duals are at least in the same realm of scores.

  4. Yes, it does. I do agree with you and don't much understand why this wasn't limited to just dual cores. A Quad makes every other dual core chip irrelevant. The 6000 series has 19 dual cores and 6 quads (3 are Extreme chips) and only the Q6600 is common (Sorry all you Q6400 users out there). So why limit the stage so severely and really make the Q6600 the only chip to use?
