Crew Leeghoofd Posted October 26, 2014 Crew Share Posted October 26, 2014 (edited) I would also vote for one submission per member... bit weird that you can resubmit the same score over and over again... think there are some lessons learned for this type of competition... I would have loved to see it another format, post the background with target score. From that moment the OCers have 12 hours to post the best or matching score... Anyway at the next OC event drinks are on Christian and Marine :woot: Fun competition Gigabyte, no high end hardware needed. It takes some time and patience to get there Edited October 26, 2014 by Leeghoofd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sofos1990 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Anyone has to propose a better competition idea? Feel free to do it in public. A competition can't satisfy us all. See the bright side. This competition will have 10 different winners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to Gigabyte and HWBot for hosting this. 400$ prize money is really a lot considering how easy it is to get the target scores. And the lucky draw also has some great prizes which I hope I win one of Maybe next time we can reveal the comp. background at the start of the stage and have a 2 hour time for people to achieve the target score. You wouldn't need more time than that as you can do pre-testing beforehand and get your frequencies right. Or match the score four days before the stage starts, keep the computer on for four days with result on screen, apply the background once it's available, take the screenshot and submit haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's weird. Our server back-end isn't too great with multiple requests from a single connection. Submitting multiple scores at the same time from the same PC/connection may indeed cause a delay.

adiath Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 this has nothing to do with "fair play"...this is plain stupid result hammering...not a worthy winner! fantal1ty nailed it with one submission - that's how it should be! well done! as you can see in the list above it currently seems that result-hammering is allowed and even welcomed. In Stage 2 the winner submitted I think at least 15-20 results the minute BEFORE the competition is open - due to a lag and other requests you block the result-ids and therefore hopefully end up in front of the "honest" participants only using one score and sending it right in the second the competition starts. I questioned that already in stage one and kindly asked if we change the rules to "one target, one submission" but looks like some ppl. wanted to keep their advantage and bend the entire competition... Agree.. I think this competition is great because have unique idea and anyone can participate without high spec hardware. But i feel there something wrong with the implementations of this competition. Someone that know about hwbot system, server lag, weakness of system, will win. I agree with rules about "one person, one submission". After this time that show us there are something wrong, maybe most of us not interested to this competitions anymore.

A competition can't satisfy us all. See the bright side. This competition will have 10 different winners. Easy... We had a similar competition on a bench session, but: target score was unknown UNTIL start of the competition... Idea: 1. increase time frame for submit up to eg 24 h 2. timeframe can be adjusted from stage to stage for every reagion (EU / US / ASIA) - let's say first stage starts at 0800 am CET, second 0400 pm CET, third 0000 am 3. target unknown, maybe just give a range - secret trarget is eg 80.000 3D03 and just a range from 60.000 ~ 100.000 is published to prepare the right hardware => first hit is the winner, or the closest score after 24 h for shure, these 24 h are though, but can also be changed down to 4 h or 8 h...

MaJ0r Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Our server back-end isn't too great with multiple requests from a single connection. Submitting multiple scores at the same time from the same PC/connection may indeed cause a delay. Of course, but seems it wasn't working for MarineOC )) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwardFabrik Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 (edited) is it just me or does 05 gives a hard time matching a certain score?...it's soooooo random I had +2 and -2 already but next run --> +/- 100 points....well there is still some time left so re-run, re-run, re-run... @Massman don't blame the server, according to what I know from servers, dbs and stuff this lag is caused by all the other multiple submissions not just the one sending it (server actually doesn't care where the data comes from, it just reserves IDs and starts to handle them first-in, first-out!).. my first result in stage 1 took 38 seconds to be accepted because there have been like 20-40 results in queue from others...I only sended one single result and it lagged like never before...If everybody only submits one result -> less/no lag -> no problem Edited October 27, 2014 by AwardFabrik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AwardFabrik Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 (edited) The real bad thing - I didn't saved that 30255 on sunday because I thought "ok I'll just nail it monday... After relooping almost entire monday -> fufufufufuffufufufuffu ^^ Had one 30275, first mixed the last digits, party on - then realized - that's not the score... €: darn I really need to fix that login -.- Edited October 27, 2014 by AwardFabrik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoF Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Had 30258 two times now...more re-runs than XTU and Prime together - this stage starts to get out of control for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I haven't tried yet, but nailed hwbot prime from the 5th run. Then forgot about the time change This is the consequence of using "smart" alarms with self-adjusting day-light saving time. If I only have used a conventional alarm clock...
