July 14, 20159 yr Crew 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.
July 14, 20159 yr I'm always good with stage repeats as long as it's different faces and a year later! i7 C0 + GT200 was a blast.
July 14, 20159 yr Crew I like the fact that the Nvidia 650i Memory Clock stage is part of the MISC challenge and not part of the MEM challenge.
July 14, 20159 yr 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?
July 15, 20159 yr 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.
July 15, 20159 yr 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
July 15, 20159 yr Stage7: PCMark7 Single CPU (22.09.2015) Use 1 processor(s). Is that 1 CPU or only CPUs with one core?
July 15, 20159 yr Are the starting dates also staggered? Getting this one... EDIT: Sorry, in the Stage 1.1 CPUz Intel Lowest Clock stage. Edited July 15, 20159 yr by Rasparthe
July 15, 20159 yr 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)
July 16, 20159 yr 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.
July 16, 20159 yr 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.
July 16, 20159 yr 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.
July 16, 20159 yr 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.
July 16, 20159 yr 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.
July 16, 20159 yr As many as you like, the engine will only recognize the best score (or the lowest I suppose for those stages)
July 17, 20159 yr 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 ...
July 17, 20159 yr Crew You need atleast XP to make a verification. A lot of CPUs that probably will run much lower cant be validated for that reason.
July 17, 20159 yr 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).
July 18, 20159 yr 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??????
