i want to join i have cheap azz hardware

Refer to the XS forums for more information :-)

Where do i login Massman??

Good question ... we might have stumbled on a bug here.

 

I'll ask RB to check it out in the morning, asap.

Thanks my freind... (LOL)

Okay, try again :-)

We need a "Join Event" button that then leads to another screen that prompts for the passkey distributed. Otherwise I need to be added as a moderator and manually add people?

You are actually a competition moderator

Shouldn't a moderator be able to submit results then?

Why is this a closed competition in the first place? If people submit using the correct hw, they may participate, no?

 

It's a competition held over at XS between XS members. Why should a competition be open?

Opened to public, everyone can submit

 

(if you have a 4670 ofc)

but then you list only 1 card?

 

I think this is the 3rd time we've done this. We vote on a single GPU to target and then we all wail on them for a month or so. It's a lot of cheap fun

By keeping the challenge closed it would require people to go to XS and chat it up in the challenge thread. This isn't about winning prizes or anything, it's about having fun. So, I didn't want some random person submitting scores and none of us having a clue who/what is going on. The original format would let everyone know everyone as we chat about bashing these chips into the ground.

Oh goody I have two

Post in the XS thread as well, just to let everyone know you're playing ;-)

Oohhh what's up guys? I wanna play :-)

 

Lemme see how much a 4670 costs... and can we use LN2???

How come the rankings here aren't split into cooling classes? There are 2 classes of scores, air/water, and extreme cooling.

The guys running standard cooling types aren't competing against the dice/ln2 guys.

 

 

 

edit: One more thing, this has always been an XS competition. As Chris said, it's about much more than just who gets the best score. If someone can't be bothered to join the forum and thread there, I don't think they should be eligible.

I offered to close it when the bugs were fixed, but Chris was okay with keeping it open.

It's not that big of a deal either way. Most are already over there anyway. We do need the 2 cooling class scores separate though to give the air/water folks (like me ) a chance.
