Great Score Congrats! -
Yes i understand your point. But the benchers who only benched unpopular hardware in the past now feel like "kicked in the ass" Like Lippokratis of your Team. Nearly had 1100 hwboints and now just 500. Thats a slap in the face... They also spend time and money in their benches even if they just got 1p for it. Now its only 0,1.

Yes i agree on that but i also think it should be rewarded to bench unpopular hardware. Or nobody will do it in future... I've read a lot of posts hear and i think nearly all hwbot members would appriciate few more points. In my opinion the top 5 should always be rewarded - even if there are just 5 submissions. Like it was in rev2.

Yea i know but "global" always meant to me to have really really fast scores but now it's not about the score. It's just about weight of categories. You try to give ppl with less money the chance to participate at hwbot. That's a good thought! The old scheme rewarding the top 5 was great. 2 points for 1st and then go down slowly. If you don't reward benching unpopular hardware no one will bench it. Okay you say for achievements but there are a lot of benchers benching for the team like "Lippokratis" of PCGamesHardware did. Now he has hundred of results with 0,1 points... there is no motivation for him to go on benching unpopular CPUs. In my opinion the difference between popular and unpopular is to big. You should reward unpopular hardware a bit more. In the past you recieved good points beeing in Top20 Hardwarecategory. Now you often get 0,1p at place 3, 4, 5 or less... just not balanced

Yes that's true but who will bench unpopular hardware if you only recieve 0,1-0,5p even on place 3. But if you submit a really bad score you get 0,1 anyway... That makes it not worth to bench anymore. And who will go for the "real WRs" now? If you earn most points with only one card? You need much more skills to bench 4 GPUs subzero and therefore you get nearly nothing compared to single GPU. Global always meant to me gaining a really fast score and now, in wPrime 1024m, i get more global Points with an E8600 than a i7-975?
