Please re-read the rules about PCMARK Vantage submissions. A valid FutureMark ORB link is acceptable in lieu of a screen shot.

1 - Futuremark removed/or changed the link of a lot of score from theire database. At the end of 2010 and this result is from 2009

Trying to find the result atm. EDIT : didn't find it(using the ID and the search option).

 

2 - So has his score is with a trial serial, that meens he cannot change settings, so the score is runned at default settings(1nd rule), benchmark score is clearly showed(2nd rule), cpuz tab showed(4th rule), settings not showed but as he used a trial key he cannot change settings so it's ok(3rd rule).

 

3 - ATM it's not mandatory to show subtest scores.

 

And btw : The exemple screenshot in the rules is not right(not showing all mandatory tab and it's a pic of PCMar05).

 

So according to the actual rules this score is legit.

 

4 - Screenshot is mandatory only since fall of 2010

Ho, in fact you posted under Sweet submission because he blocked one of yours. Not to said his submission is not right.

Screenshot is mandatory since fall of 2010

 

Rules haven't been updated, it has to be done btw

 

EDIT : here is the thread : Screenshot Mandatory

 

Important: screenshot verification mandatory for all submissions

As of November 1st, it is mandatory to accompany every score submission with a verification screenshot. This screenshot must suffice to the specific verification requirements of each benchmark. One exception: for CPU-Z validations, a screenshot is not necessary

No it is not.

 

This was front page news and first posted on the 27th Oct 2010

 

Important: screenshot verification mandatory for all submissions

 

Dear Overclocking Community,

 

This small news post is to inform you that the general HWBOT benchmark verification rules have been updated.

 

“As of November 1st, it is mandatory to accompany every score submission with a verification screenshot. This screenshot must suffice to the specific verification requirements of each benchmark. One exception: for CPU-Z validations, a screenshot is not necessary”

 

This rule has been added after an inquiry from various sources. This rule will mainly affect benchmarks such as 3DMark Vantage and PCMark.

 

Best regards,

 

The HWBOT Staff.

 

 

 

 

Flash could you please not create a thread to discuss a member when what you wish to discuss has nothing to do with that member.

 

It would have been far better to simply start a thread expressing your inquiry about the rules.

 

And you are quite correct the rules do need updating and they will be.

 

However the new Rev of HWBOT is the primary focus of most of the development and BOT mantainence staff. A benchmark that does not impact of either global nor hardware points is understandably low on their list of priorities at this time. So please bare with us and submit your scores with a full and comprehensive screen. Remember more information is better than the barest minimum.

I think , in July 2009, I try the PCMark Vantage with this cpu, a simple test with air cooling without much Mhz in the Cpu.

Anyway, at that time was not needed as much information as I put on the screen.

 

But as written 1Day and Christian Ney, since 01/11/2010, all information is required in the screen.This is for all submission, and for all from that time, even for me.

Screen shot is mandatory, with all required, that's all

 

Thanks Christian and 1Day, for the explanation for FlashG

 

Regards
