Cheers Jabski for the clarification, futuremark only for this result then

do you think there will be any alignment between orb and the bot on the hdd startup limit at some point?

[PCmark05 limits]

2 questions for the moderators

Has there been any further discussion about matching the cap for PCmark05 with the orb ?

As i understand it, 300mb/sec windows startup limit on orb and 220mb/sec on hwbot.

 

Also,

for the HWBOT submission limit, I've just mamaged to get a 220.582 xp startup on an overall score of 28482. I've only orb submitted and didn't submit to the bot as i don't want post an illegal score.

 

so the question i have is , is the exact limit 220.00[/b]mb/sec or 221.00mb/sec ?

if I did post this score on the bot, would it be pulled ?

 

any info appreciated

[Formula One Overclocking Contest]

I'd like to suggest a change in format for the competition, why not have a qualifying round ?

 

 

Something along the lines of this:

 

Qualification round - open to all from all countries - widest audience

 

have qualification round for 1 month or longer

 

allow for a building of viral marketing opportunities building up to the actual competition itself

 

Results submitted to HWBOT for the Specifc competition only and validated

top 5/10/20 scores from each country to allow formation of country team or top 20/50/100 scores overall qualify for actual competition

 

Competition round - run with the best from qualifying

 

Why would this work ?

I'm sure Hardware manufacturers would like the widest audience involved for both brand visibility and sales opportunities

 

Everyone gets a chance to participate and attract more folks to be involved

 

wider media coverage - small no - good interest, large No - higher and wider interest potentially into mainstream media

 

- Hwbot team, would this be possible ? - maybe allow searching for a date submitted + specific comment included so these results can be filtered to show competition results only for a specific search?
