Ranking algoritm:

 

Note that the OC-ESPORTS ranking is affected by the recent kick off or Round 3 of the Road To Pro. So early submissions yield quickly 50pts for ranking first.

ya I don't know if I like the oc esports points. I dropped 30 places over night and now it's really hard to move up from just benching normally because the places feel more separated now. Obviously I need to join more comps but I don't think you should end up being penalized if you dont want to.

 

It's such a huge chunk of points that some people get. Once it went live we should have all started at 0

"from the last 365 days"

 

So if you get your oc-esports points on the 16th of September 2015, they are valid until the 15th of September 2016. The next day, those points are no longer valid.

If you don't want to do competitions, you don't need to. Hideo, is #1 in the Extreme League without participating in any competition. Just like it's not necessary to run XTU as Der8auer is top-3 without a single XTU score accounting to his league total ...

seems some are leaving hwbot over this. It does seem to attempt to strongarm people into benching in the oe area comps

 

Personally I think that people caring so much about their points/position will adapt to whatever changes surface along the way. Others will continue doing it for their entertainment, it's still a hobby after all, not something you'd have on your resume.

thats most of the issue. we do this for entertainment, but enjoy gaining points from our work. Our work is now worth next to nothing. It seems an attempt to force everyone to play someone else's game one someone else'e time

I understand what you're saying.

Tune that out and think 'entertainment', not work.

After all, that's what it's really about. Keep it fun. :)

OC-Esports points still don't make sense on my account, happy to get the extra points but I know I'm not entitled to them :P

 

It's sorted now. Let me know if you find any other bugs.

Seems to be fixed for a couple but I still think my points are inflated. Got firsts when I don't have any from this years cup and last. Might just need to be recalculated or something on my end so I'll give it a go

Only there have been competition points for years and they never used to expire. I have 3 years of competition points that disappeared on me, 3 years of work for nothing. On second thought, I support you, lets go back to the old system. ;)

Yeah but picture you are new to OC and you want to be competitive, how are you going to be able to contest those who have 3K competition points stored up over 10 years? It wouldn't be a fair system really.

I was not serious, I actually think the current system is very fair. Selfishly, I would have like to see some portion remain of last 3 years of work but I can't argue with the fairness of the new system.

"All-time" points calculation to show that you're a "competition whore"!
