Yes, it's mandatory. Please switch to a keyboard layout like English (USA). That will fix it. Also, it is fixed in XTU 5.1.2.

Such HOF threads are not a problem . I can update them once a month.

We can use this one for the OC-ESPORTS News for a testing period: https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=ocesports

Hard, as in "too difficult", no. Hard, as in "too time-consuming", yes. I'm already juggling development time slots around to stay on track with the different projects we have going on. That includes HWBOT dev, OC-ESPORTS dev, XTU maintenance, HWBOT Prime dev, the online/live competitions, World Tour, and so on. Specifically related to the HWBOT points we have a 7-month old idea for Teams League coming from the community and the competition points to resolve first. And that doesn't include the things we have on roadmap to keep OC moving forward in 2016 and beyond. There's a reason why we're looking for (and may have found) extra developers. I don't want to tell you "we can do it", when realistically speaking I don't see a chance to get around this anytime soon. There's no point in making promises I know we can't live up to. I understand that this something you'd really like to see, and I understand if you disagree with the choices we make.

Confirmed - trying to fix it

Without getting too technical, the main difference is that for a Competition we have all the code set in place to build a page with automatic ranking without having to do any additional development work. In addition, all the logic is set in place too. That includes caching, recalculation triggers, checks for scenarios like removing a submission and so on. For adding rankings to HWBOT, there's development work for the algorithm, caching, services, page maintenance, writing automatic tests, validation (to prevent the ranking from breaking when adding new features), etc. And this doesn't even include the logic to make the ranking interactive - for example to find all the results that are contributing to this ranking. Building a competition can be done with no extra development overhead. Or simply put: I don't have to ask the developer to do anything.

I'm sorry to hear you are disappointed with our efforts. While it is true that we are considering a League as a solution for the beginner extreme overclockers, I want to clarify there's a difference between an additional classification within the Overclockers League, and adding an entirely new point algorithm. All the Overclocker Leagues (Rookie to Elite) are based on the same point algorithm, but categorize by user account type. This is relatively easy and not so time consuming to implement. Mainly because the algorithm to calculate the League Points is the same. Adding a League like the Hardware Masters but for old-school hardware is a lot more time-consuming and complex because it includes development of a new point algorithm. Of course it is not impossible, but I would rather see our development time spent on fixing HWBOT bugs and improving OC-ESPORTS features. It is of course okay if you disagree with this decision . The competition series will have an overall ranking that combines all the different Old School is Best School rounds. You can see how this works for example with the Rookie Rumble ranking. Currently there is a bug that prevents the ranking for the old school competition to show correctly, but we're in the process of fixing that. In the end, the entire HWBOT team tries to deliver the best possible experience with the resources available. Antinomy did a great job gathering ideas and coming up with the entire competition series structure, and Xyala made pretty cool artwork for it. SDougal is writing a news announcement about the series and I'm sure TheMadDutchDude will brilliantly cover the overclocking results as the series moves forward. I hope you will enjoy the Old School is Best School competition series nonetheless! :woot:

Never have I seen such a perfect description of maturing, Apfelkuchen! (Oh happy birthday SoF!)

Added development items for the average cooling and the unfollow button. The Cinebenches are grouped

Adding rankings requires back-end development work, whereas for creating competition and series we have front-end tools. It really is a lot easier and less time-consuming. I know it's not the perfect solution for everyone, since we have to move this to the OC-ESPORTS platform but it is what works . BTW, the series should have a working "Hall of Fame" ranking too. For some reason this isn't working properly on the OC-ESPORTS site so I will need to fix that. I will post the link here when it works :up:.

Splave just forgot that you can't go "this CPU is unsatisfactory, gimme refund" with a UK shop. This isn't Newegg!

Our server hosting forum and wordpress isn't powerful enough. UPgraaaaade! :celebration:

What benchmark are you trying to make a submission for? Are you attaching any screenshots or system pictures?

Nice! LN2 hooked now?

Proper clocks!

Nice 10K!

Nice!

Corrected! Thanks for the report

Yeah, but the MSI competition starts on April 1 ... the email was on time Good suggestion on the RSS/notifications. We have planned that for future development.

Alrighty, all scores have been checked! Sorry for the delay. We'll forward the information to Overclockers.at now to arrange the shipment of prizes

Nice runs, QuickFast !

Nice one!

Whoah, Global First! Nice!

Hmm ......

Pretty much ready! Thanks to Antinomy for all the effort he put in to this http://oc-esports.io/#!/round/osibs_round1
