TASOS Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) Because everyone can do it?  Not because of that. Because of it's ranking system.  1st submission get's the top ranking and all the rest get nothing (i mean less and less points). At least that's what i see right now.  Country cup is not a speedy competition with a narrow time frame. All teams must have a reasonable time to prepare and a fair chance to fight for 1st place.  You cant write , that there is a soft launch at 15/07/2015  Then wait for full throttle at 01/08/2015.  The stage ends 15/09/2015  But the top ranking goes to the 1st submission.  Come on.  Where does it say that this is a time frame stage ? Limitations A verification screenshot is required. Please attach a picture of your overclocking rig. Only submissions made on or after 2015-07-15 are allowed. Official Team Cup 2015 background mandatory (for stages with screenshot verification): download Edited July 17, 2015 by TASOS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasparthe Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I just thought it was an anti-sandbagging stage. 1 stage out of 30 isn't serious, and to be fair, the description did say that there were stages that are time sensitive. I believe the exact wording was "and some require immediate attention". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knopflerbruce Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I feel that if you complete the task you should get the top score anyway. After all, it's based on a fair bit of luck - it's a competition, not a lottery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.paco Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Not sure if it was noticed but the engine is taking all submissions made in the cloud gate target 250 subcomp and adding them all together on the leader board as 1 leader with 243 points...

I mean its not F1 racing, TechSweden hasn't won it already. I'm pretty sure it was intentional so I don't see it getting changed.  Have you read my previous post ? I think i made my self clear enough , about the reasons that are wrong.  Can you please answer my question below ?  A new team created today , wants to participate to Team Cup. Do they have a chance to fight for 1st place in this stage ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasparthe Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Not any more, but that is the way the stage was designed. I would argue that if a team was created one day before the competition, it might be the ONLY stage it had a chance of winning. The other 29 stages are heavily biased towards large teams, lots of hardware/sponsored teams, and those teams that are able to gather and share LN2 costs, etc. Should we start handicapping teams that have an advantage in some way. Perhaps if a team is based in a small country, perhaps of 132,000 square kilometers, they should get an automatic reduction in points because of how geographically close they are. I mean we are concerned with this new team being created right? Â I honestly, could care less if they give everyone the same points or not, but the overview quite clearly states their was a stage that was time sensitive. If a team missed that clue, followed by the fact that only one stage was open, then why complain about it now? Sour grapes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our frequencies are very far apart.  I have the feeling that you are trying to convince me that the original blackboard is white.  If English is your native language , can you please define "soft launch" ?  What i can tell you nevertheless is , that ... A bad idea will always be a bad idea Wrong will always be wrong.   I would appreciate , if somebody could explain to me , what the following text in the picture means , in plain English.

ObscureParadox_3XS Posted July 20, 2015 Author Share Posted July 20, 2015 It's doing it as a user score and not a team one, probably where the issue lies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
