Crew Don_Dan Posted June 21, 2011 Crew Posted June 21, 2011 Ooh, I remembered how I fixed it the last time . I fixed both of your team-mates' scores. The points should be adding right now. Can I do anything to fix it or only you? I think it's working now, points are slowly adding up. Thanks! Quote
Massman Posted June 21, 2011 Author Posted June 21, 2011 Sadly enough, no. We make use of two team_id entries in our database: one in the user database (to link a user to a team) and one in the result database (to link a result to the team). Normally, the engine should update all the team_id fields in the result table when the user changes team, but that is not the case at the moment. The team_id key in the user database is working. For performance reasons, we make use of the team_id key of the result table to find all results of the team rather than going through the user database. So, to fix your problem, I have to manually update the result table with the user's new team. It's a small bug, so it should be that difficult to solve. Quote

DopeLex Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 (edited) Another question: our team lost over night ~ 350 points but we didn't lost a member and nobody visibly lost much points. How this can be? Edited June 22, 2011 by DopeLex Quote
thebanik Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 Dont know whether some1 has already reported it, or others are ok with it. But let me jot down the way bot behaves and how it should ideally behave IMO. If I am searching for a graphic card boints. I select the benchmark and then a particular score, when hitting browser back button, benchmark listed always go back to 3DM01, I am sure something similar would be happening with CPU too..... So is it possible that bot remembers the benchmark and page we were browsing??? Quote
PAQd Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 Fred, Massman, Would you be kind enough to add "Oceania" to the drop down Regions search before you release it in a couple of weeks please. We feel left out down under Countries of Oceania Many thanks Quote
Massman Posted June 22, 2011 Author Posted June 22, 2011 It's not thát much work . Oceania region is up and running. I noticed some countries are located in Oceania, but belong to other countries. Not sure what rule to apply here; I don't think it will be a big issue either. Quote
DopeLex Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 Another question: our team lost over night ~ 350 points but we didn't lost a member and nobody visibly lost much points. How this can be? What about this? Quote

Massman Posted June 22, 2011 Author Posted June 22, 2011 It's quite difficult to find the exact reason. Do the points add up correctly? Quote
Massman Posted June 22, 2011 Author Posted June 22, 2011 Yeah' date=' like Hawaii, sort that out and play fair Cheers P[/quote'] Hawaii falls under US. Are you going to hit me in the face now? Quote
PAQd Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 (edited) Is that like Belgian's being Eurasian Africans On a slightly more serious note might I say how great the new version is - a credit to you all who give your time so selflessly. Edited June 22, 2011 by OverPAQ'd Quote
Massman Posted June 22, 2011 Author Posted June 22, 2011 I don't care who I beat in the rankings ... Quote
DopeLex Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 It's quite difficult to find the exact reason. Do the points add up correctly? No - team contribution of single members added is a big difference and does absolutely not match with total points. Points added in total points frame match with wrong total points. Quote
DopeLex Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 No solution for this problem? Where there any changes this night or morning to the server or something like that? It's definitly very strange that we had ~8080 points yesterday evening and now only ~7700 points. Btw: i also heard that pcgameshardware is in front of awardfabrik in teamranking and nobody @ pcghx know's why?! Quote
Massman Posted June 22, 2011 Author Posted June 22, 2011 Do note that other teams can affect your team ranking by pushing you down in TPP rankings. Quote
DopeLex Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 (edited) But not 400 points within 6-8 hours - seems a little bit impossible - above all because of nobody visibly lost that much points! In my opinion this is a public beta test of rev.4 (someone brought it to the point - it's more Rev.0.4 than 4.0) with all the bugs - thats far far away from being final. And finally, when i look in this thread TPP. This goes against the principle of encouraging benching - it's gonna be a little bit ridiculous, when i hear "Looking into this, sounds like we might have missed something in the R4 logic."! Edit: Now it's gonna be really crazy - now we have 90 points more than 30 minutes ago, without uploading anything. Edited June 22, 2011 by DopeLex Quote
DopeLex Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 Then you surely can explain me, why we now have more points than 30 minutes ago without doing anything. That does not sound like a normal behavior in my eyes and you can't say that that has do do with tpp - losing points without to do anything makes sense in my eyes but gain points?! Quote
Massman Posted June 22, 2011 Author Posted June 22, 2011 Perhaps it's because I'm trying to fix your initial problem and have triggered the engine to recalculate all submissions. Fyi, didn't mAlkAv!An change teams a few days ago? If yes, that's the reason why you suddenly lost so many points (I fixed a point scoring issue of his account). Quote
DopeLex Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 (edited) That maybe could be an explantation - for the lost of points - did you fixed that yesterday or this morning? I just try to figure out how this can be. But why they range so much, espacially upwards? Edit: But i think he contributed ~1100 points to our team. When i know calculate our Points minus 1100 (mAlkAV!An) plus 480 (Moose83) - we have a difference of 620 but we lost only ~ 300 at the momentary standing - also weird.

Massman Posted June 22, 2011 Author Posted June 22, 2011 The TPP contribution of a user is relative to the team is he is part of. So, a user can have 1000 TPP points in one team, but only 250 TPP when he goes to another team. Practical example: - User A is the only one playing with dry ice in Team X => all his scores are the best of his team => a lot of TPP - User A changes to Team Y, in which most members play with LN2 => 1/2 of his scores are the best of the team => less TPP When User A, who for example has 1000 TPP in Team X, leaves the team, it also means that other users will now have the 'best score of team' in new categories. So, it's possible you lose 1000 TPP member, but the loss is covered by all the other members and therefore is lower than the 1000 TPP. //edit: fixed it this morning. Quote
DopeLex Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 Okay - makes sense. Thanks and don't feel personally affected cause of my opinion. Everybody of you made great work with Rev.4 (it's a great thing) - i personally just think, that it maybe came a little bit to early. Quote
Massman Posted June 22, 2011 Author Posted June 22, 2011 Hehe . We need to be personally affected. If we're not, it means there's something wrong with our attitude. Quote
