Bones Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 we could have a poll just to avoid further "clashes" That's not a bad idea. Quote

I have 115 WR points that just did not help at all..... with these 115 WR points I would be Emperor of Overclock.....if anyone here not think it is important, must leave the Hwbot.... these 115 WR points were the hardest to win....I have dedicated much time and money to get them.... I would like a definitive answer of moderation....so as to define my future here....thx (thanks for the help Google Translator =D) Faster Benchmarker Edited October 25, 2011 by Faster Quote
Massman Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 A competition comes as it comes; each of the three leagues have their own rules and it's upto the participant to figure out how to gain positions in the league. For the enthusiast league, we chose to not have WR points count for a valid reason (enthusiast ~ low entry cost). Although this thread was very interesting as people brought up valid arguments in favor or against allowing WR points to count for this league, I don't see the benefit of allowing WR points. In other words: if you want the WR points to count for your personal total, you should maybe consider moving to the Overclockers League. With the passion and effort you currently put into overclocking, I actually think that moving up one league will give you a greater challenge than staying in the enthusiast league anyway. Quote

Massman Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Yeap, it is my opinion. It's also kind of my job to make decisions like that. Quote
Faster Posted October 25, 2011 Author Posted October 25, 2011 Yeap, it is my opinion. It's also kind of my job to make decisions like that.then your final word is that we have not even a vote? Quote
Massman Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 A vote where 150 of your forum members say "yes" and all other people don't really care either way? You started this thread with a suggestion. It has been discussed by many people, each with their own opinion. I listened to the opinions, explained why we made the decision in the first place, then considered the different arguments and made a conlusion. The conclusion being that the league is how it is and there's no real need to change it. Quote

(these are your words).....if this really happened, it would be a vote ideial....if you do not accept it because you doubt even if the rules were fair and good....this is clear as the sun Quote
Massman Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Sigh. I don't put a vote, because I am confident the rules are fair and good the way they are now. If I was in doubt, then I'd put up a vote and go with what the majority wants. Quote

Massman Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 The word enthusiast in the Enthusiast League stands for: "people who like hardware, but don't have the funds or opportunity to overclocking top-of-the-line hardware or use exotic cooling such as liquid nitrogen". I'm getting increasingly annoyed by you trying to become #1 of a certain league by forcing us to change the rules. The rules are what they are. There's plenty of stuff you can do that requires a lot of effort and will yield no increase in points; it's not because you do them that suddenly the rules should change so you will see benefit from them.

(his words, "friend").....do you all think that polls are irrelevant here.... why then have that vote? (Voting for Maxxmem2 giving points with 3 diferent options, or not giving points) strange? Quote
Christian Ney Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 "people who like hardware, but don't have the funds or opportunity to overclocking top-of-the-line hardware or use exotic cooling such as liquid nitrogen". +1 Not to be rude at all, but if you like those WR points so much, feel free to move from EOL to XOL Quote
Massman Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 If you like to run around with a ball in your hands and want to do it competitively, you choose to play rugby. You don't ask Fifa to change the rules of soccer ... Quote

Massman Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Okay, so now that we agree I'm a genius, we can move on? Quote
Faster Posted October 25, 2011 Author Posted October 25, 2011 Okay, so now that we agree I'm a genius, we can move on? at least one person on the planet truly believe it :D Quote
Hyperhorn Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Massman explained his point of view and given the role he has at Hwbot I think you have to accept it (or mention at least some new aspects to discuss about even if it is unlikely that this will turn around anything). However can somebody please rename the thread title? "Voting" looks a lot better. Quote
knopflerbruce Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 While I don't fully agree with all of massman's posts here, I do agree to the fact that it's a good idea to keep the enthusiast league a bit "rookie-like". Even though you deserve the points, you're still not the type of bencher that should be in the enthusiast league at all - you SHOULD step up And if you step up, there is no problem... Quote
Splave Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 You must understand atleast a little why the rules are this way dont you? Quote
Handrox Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 If a participant in a lower league to get a better result than a participant in a higher league, deserves more points, a plus, it would be fair. Recognizing the merits of who comes down is not no sin. I see here people from the major leagues losing feeling pressed for a WR to a participant in a minor league. Today is Faster, tomorrow I can be who is going through this situation. Are cases like this that made me the one time benchmark. Using Google translator .. Quote
TJB_SC Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 You must understand atleast a little why the rules are this way dont you? I know how to troll fella... Just be serious here... Quote
