Guest harrynowl Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 That's not a question to make me happy or not. That seems sarcastic. Or we follow the rules or we follow the circus. The decision is not is my hands. No sarcasm was intended, however I have to wonder if you'd be contesting the issue if I was bottom of the table.

Massman Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 The rules for the Rumble are that you can finish a competition you started, even if in the period of three weeks you move up to Novice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randyenergy Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share Posted August 20, 2014 That means a novice can steal points from a rookie. Great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest harrynowl Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I moved up *during* the competition (4 days ago) I can't control that. If before the start of the competition and I submitted results that's a different thing entirely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest harrynowl Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 To remove your submission click on it and 'remove from contest'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randyenergy Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share Posted August 20, 2014 I'm not complaining about your position. What I complain is that the rules in fact allow novices take the points away from the rookies. And that shouldn't be allowed. Simple straight fact.

randyenergy Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share Posted August 20, 2014 Wonder why I am not getting much feedback from the moderators. And I thought this place was more organized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 It basically means that you can finish what you started. In the next Rookie Rumble, Harry will be a true Novice and won't be able to join. The Rumbles are all for good fun, I'm sorry to see it's upsetting you so much Randy . As Harry said, if you want to remove yourself from the competition you can unlink the submissions from the competition by clicking Remove From Competition in the sidebar on each of the submission pages.

Massman Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I guess we'll have to speed up our Novice competition series then ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest harrynowl Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Haha, I have an Athlon 760K 'available' but it's in my dads PC right now and I don't think he'd appreciate me putting 1.5v+ through it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Why not ... ... introduce your dad to overclocking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest harrynowl Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I don't think he'll want to when he finds out that my 5600k is KIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Oh yeah, better keep this thread hidden from his eyes then, haha. Can you easily RMA the chip? "It worked first and now it doesn't anymore"-rule, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest harrynowl Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I'm going to try Amazon returns as they are very much "yea ok here's a new one" no questions asked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JunkDogg Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Awesome mate. Hopefully it gets there in time. You've got to chase that HWBOT Prime score of mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Galaor Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 sorry but I have another question, is it worth turning off cores to obtain more results? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JunkDogg Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Seems to only work for the OC% mate. You can try for the other 2 benches but I've found it only hurts your score. Running 1 core for a massive % overclock can help to get it into windows. More trial and error though mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest harrynowl Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Junkdogg is correct, I didn't realize this at one point and submitted a 8320 score with only 1 core per module enabled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JunkDogg Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Close Harry. Hope you got your new chip to get some more in mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
