The notifications on your wall already do that for regular submissions, but I don't think there's a notification for when you lose competition points. I'll check with development what the workload would be to add this. As a current work around I can make a news post at the start of the month with a list of competitions that will lose points in the coming month. Would that be a good solution already?

Looking into the ASRock Z170 OC Formula availability.

List of disallowed motherboards expanded ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Impact is not allowed for the competition because there is no worldwide availability [19.10.15]. GIGABYTE Z170X-SOC Force is not allowed for the competition because there is no worldwide availability [20.10.15]. GIGABYTE Z170X-SOC Force LN2 is not allowed for the competition because there is no worldwide availability [20.10.15]. ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Extreme (and other variants) is not allowed for the competition because there is no worldwide availability [20.10.15].

Won't affect the ranking, no worries All done!

Hm, this problem would occur when the data-file is corrupt. The error indicates there is no application version in the datafile. Do you have lower scores you can upload without any problem?

Niiiice!

Impact is not allowed because there is no worldwide availability. Will add this to the rules

Test out the embed scripts on your site/blog/forum and check if there are any bugs or problems. Plus, of course, any suggestions to improve interfaces.

Which competitions did you participate in? Should be a competition from last year I think

We provided the contact email to MSI. I think Pepi will be contacting you guys soon. He was in South Africa for an event lately, so that may have caused the delay.

Checking with HyperX ...

You're allowed to use any set of components for the competition. I understand your concern, though. Something for us to think about ...

The difference is surprisingly large. I'm not sure how to address this exactly, because it makes competing with a Haswell pretty difficult

Whaaaaaaa?

What?! Two points ?!

I'm surprised XMP is working on these chips! Can you dial in the memory timings manually too? The Q0 engineering samples were unlocked; the R0 retail are not. In fact, due to the new implementation of BCLK (external PLL), the frequency range is even more limited than on previous platforms. So yeah, we won't be seeing much over 103 MHz on these chips. Well ... maybe ... we'll see ...

Hey All, Since September we work with a new development team to help bring new features to HWBOT. The first task at hand was to build an easy to use embed functionality for hwbot rankings and leaderboards. We currently have three types of leaderboards that can be embedded: Team Ranking, per benchmark World Records, per benchmark Competition Leaderboard, per contest We are currently in the process of finishing up on the back-end and will focus on the front-end in the next couple of weeks. We would need a bit of help debugging the beta version of the embed function ... so if you're up for it, drop a message below! Thank you in advance! :celebration:

TecLab has massive potential too ... big user base

Maybe you lost competition points?

Via ministry of overclocking, I could compile a list of Aquamark3 "world records" back in the day.
