Crew Strunkenbold Posted July 14, 2015 Crew Posted July 14, 2015 It finally arrived! There are some nice ideas for the stages. Though seems like much is getting recycled. Like the Realbench Stage. Isnt that a GPU stage anyway? Or K6 stages (though I have to say that I like that) or didnt we had VIA already with superpi(32m) last year? AGP 3DMark03 was already Country Cup 2013. Though no real critism, just some thoughts. The constant reloading with the loading indicator and overlay on e-sports site is very annoying. +1 Does it have to block the whole page while reloading? And why does reloading that so long anyway? It sometimes loads up to 10 seconds and when it finished it reloads again. OC eFail site strikes back again. Quote
xxbassplayerxx Posted July 14, 2015 Posted July 14, 2015 I'm always good with stage repeats as long as it's different faces and a year later! i7 C0 + GT200 was a blast. Quote
Crew Don_Dan Posted July 14, 2015 Crew Posted July 14, 2015 I like the fact that the Nvidia 650i Memory Clock stage is part of the MISC challenge and not part of the MEM challenge. Quote
Rasparthe Posted July 14, 2015 Posted July 14, 2015 I'm a little confused on the start date... its says opens July 15, but details and overview won't be out until Aug 1? Are we able to submit scores for July 15 or no? Quote
zeropluszero Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Can we talk about how unbelievably difficult it is to get simple information on the Esports Site? is it really that hard to put up the old competition pages view from the previous years? http://hwbot.org/competition/team_cup_2013/ for example is so much more easy to navigate simple information, such as current leaders, individual stages, prizes... I'm sure the hwbot administration all love the changes made in the name of "innovation" but this site is an eyesore and I'm sure I'm not the only one that would appreciate the information ported into the old interface from 2013 for ease of reading. So much simpler to open a stage at http://hwbot.org/competition/team_cup_2013_sc1/ view all the top scores on the right side, which link directly to submissions. We had this changed for Country Cup 2014 (see here) and this made it much easier. Quote
Massman Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Small typo in stage 2? SuperPI 1M 40486 (should be 80486?) I could be wrong, just thought I'd ask, anyway Correcto. Thanks for the feedback! The constant reloading with the loading indicator and overlay on e-sports site is very annoying.Can you do it in a non-obtrusive way? Like small indicator on top of the page without overlay? Let me check that. I noticed the increasing refresh too; before it was a lot better. It's not supposed to do this, is what I'm trying to say I'm a little confused on the start date... its says opens July 15, but details and overview won't be out until Aug 1? Are we able to submit scores for July 15 or no? Starting date is today, you can submit in all stages. On August 1st we'll publish the official announcement detailing the start and end date of all the stages. The end date is different for ALL stages. So you can see this as an advantage for the hardcore HWBOT F5'ers Quote
lanbonden Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Stage7: PCMark7 Single CPU (22.09.2015) Use 1 processor(s). Is that 1 CPU or only CPUs with one core? Quote
Rasparthe Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 (edited) Are the starting dates also staggered? Getting this one... EDIT: Sorry, in the Stage 1.1 CPUz Intel Lowest Clock stage. Edited July 15, 2015 by Rasparthe Quote
ObscureParadox Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Installing XP on 400MHz CPU is the opposite of fun have made 3 cups of tea in the time it takes to install. (Typically British problems) Quote
ObscureParadox Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 Why do the stages say starting soon instead of open, are we not able to submit yet? Tried today for the HWBot prime mobile stage and had no luck, didn't come up with a promopt like it normally does. Quote
Massman Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 Are the starting dates also staggered? Getting this one... EDIT: Sorry, in the Stage 1.1 CPUz Intel Lowest Clock stage. Yup. One stage had opened on the 16th, others on the 18th. After the weekend, all will be open. Quote
ObscureParadox Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 Yup. One stage had opened on the 16th, others on the 18th. After the weekend, all will be open. It doesn't state that clearly anywhere though so how are we to know what opens when? As far as I was concerened it looked like everything was meant to be open on the 15th. Quote
saint19 Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 It doesn't state that clearly anywhere though so how are we to know what opens when? As far as I was concerened it looked like everything was meant to be open on the 15th. Agree. Even, you can access to the submit option from the main page but after fill out all info, the system show you that open day is 18th. Quote
Masterchief79 Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 Hey, conerning the lowest CPUZ Clock challenge. Is there a way to get CPU-Z running in windows 3.11? Or what's the oldest possible OS? Got a system set up here and wanna know if it's even possible. Quote
techjesse Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 How many submissions can we make? The best or the first? Quote
Rasparthe Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 As many as you like, the engine will only recognize the best score (or the lowest I suppose for those stages) Quote
Massman Posted July 17, 2015 Posted July 17, 2015 Hey, conerning the lowest CPUZ Clock challenge. Is there a way to get CPU-Z running in windows 3.11? Or what's the oldest possible OS? Got a system set up here and wanna know if it's even possible. I don't think CPU-Z works on W3.11 ... Quote
Crew Strunkenbold Posted July 17, 2015 Crew Posted July 17, 2015 You need atleast XP to make a verification. A lot of CPUs that probably will run much lower cant be validated for that reason. Quote
Masterchief79 Posted July 17, 2015 Posted July 17, 2015 Darn, thanks for the info though. Linux not working either then. Quote
Tech Tweaker Posted July 17, 2015 Posted July 17, 2015 Stage7: PCMark7 Single CPU (22.09.2015)Use 1 processor(s). Is that 1 CPU or only CPUs with one core? I have the same question. Since there are no official rules posted, the title of the stage is a bit confusing (or ambiguous). Quote
Marquzz Posted July 17, 2015 Posted July 17, 2015 Still miss slot A and socket 423. But there was some nice stuff. Quote
JunkDogg Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Can we move the Team Cup back to the old style pages at HWBOt instead of the OC sports crap. It's neverending updates and everytime I click on a person who has submitted's profile I get errors. Surely it has been said enough times that it is crap to work with, that you would listen to the community and go back to the preferred format?????? Quote
