Massman Posted January 2, 2010 Author Posted January 2, 2010 And in the meantime you are making low budget contest, don't be hipocrisy. I'm sorry, but this comment just doesn't make sense. - If we only think about low-end = BAD - If we only think about high-end = BAD - If we don't award high-competitive rankings = BAD - If we don't award low-competitive rankings = BAD - If we add variance = BAD Sometimes people complain just to complain ...

Massman Posted January 2, 2010 Author Posted January 2, 2010 Massman i rly don't understand why you didn't keep the points of unpopular Hardware from rev2 Why not 2p for 1st - 1,5 for 2nd and so on? Because we have noticed that A LOT of those benchmarks are run very close to stock frequency. I'm not saying that there's never skill involved, but in a lot of categories you could get into the top-3 with very small effort. In every competition, the winner takes home the big prize, but in overclocking competition everyone should feel like a winner and get huge reward ... Quote
der8auer Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Yes i understand your point. But the benchers who only benched unpopular hardware in the past now feel like "kicked in the ass" Like Lippokratis of your Team. Nearly had 1100 hwboints and now just 500. Thats a slap in the face... They also spend time and money in their benches even if they just got 1p for it. Now its only 0,1. Quote

They also spend time and money in their benches even if they just got 1p for it. Now its only 0,1. Hm. Are you guys aware that Revision 3 also fixed some major flaws in the Rev2 hardware weight calculation? In the 3D SLI/CF categories, the weight was calculated based on the competition in the single card category and not the competition in the multi card ranking. This was a flaw in the code that had gone unnoticed for a very long time and was discovered a few weeks before designing rev3. Points that have dropped from 3D multi-gpu categories are affected by both the bugfix and the new revision. It may seem as 1 issue, but it was in fact 2 issues. Quote
K404 Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Theres...what.. 48 pages in this BUG thread... how many pages/posts are dedicated to if people like Rev3 or not? Like rev 3? Dont like Rev3? Please take it to another thread.. let HWB mods + admin see the ACCIDENTAL bugs that are present and let those be discussed + sorted Quote

Becasue everyone should feel rewarded for his work and like a winner you get more points more scores you leave behind....So I think its no problem to give the categories with just 10 Scores 2P Points and 1.8, 1.6 and so on... Like der8auer said its a slap in the face.... Quote

I really like the idea of increasing amount of points in popular hardware, it was good move, but in my opinion decreasing amount of points in non-popular hardware is sensless. Bring back point system for low-end from rev.2 (2pts for 1st etc.) and keep the rest of update as it is and it gonna be really nice. Quote

It just seems very unbalanced now... I also like the improvements but i think the new rule for unpopular hardware is a step backwards. The rest is a great work. And thanks for your time diskussing here with us!!!! Quote
Massman Posted January 2, 2010 Author Posted January 2, 2010 like a winner you get more points more scores you leave behind... Since when is the winner whoever submitted most scores? The winner is the person who manages to beat all the competitors. The more competitors, the more amazing the victory is. Winner of local soccer-tournament < Winner of champions league Quote

The more competitors, the more amazing the victory is. Winner of local soccer-tournament < Winner of champions league You got me wrong there...I wanted to say that if there are more competitors for example 50 and you made it to be #1 you should be rewarded more if they are just 10 competitors. Just like it was and it today is but the gap shouldn´t be so great. Quote
Oskaliber Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Winner of local soccer-tournament < Winner of champions league Yeah, but avarge position in the champions league is not better (or is at least comparable) than winning country championship + few other local cups, as it is actually with avarge Q6600/E8500 scores vs WRs made on all s478/A/370/<put any socket older than 775 in here> CPUs.

oxyyy Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 bug? submited yesterday 2 scores but i can't view them in detail... http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=937492 http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=937511 no one? Quote

Guest Autokiller677 Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 (edited) no one? There's a bug. I can't see anything. I care about the users who have only unpopular hardware to bench... they are kind of discriminated as already said. As Alriin already said: For example Lippokratis spent lots time to bench his hardware and in fact it was not easy to get 1k+ Hwpoints. And if you look his scores you will see he usually ocerclocked and did not bench at stock. rev3 is not bad but needs some fixes to get fair and motivating for all of us and not only for the 1337-benchers. I would not say that it was easier in rev2 to grind points. But now benching a 8800 gt u get more points for nearly every score than benching unpopular hw an get 5 medals. Is this fair? I'd say no and it seems like I am not alone with my opinion. Absolutly signed. Couldn't have said it better. If I look at my scores and at the rankings of popular hardware... If I had put the time I needed for getting my 17 points with unpopular hardware in benchmarking popular hardware, I'd have a multiple of my 17 points. Edited January 2, 2010 by Autokiller677 Quote
Matti OC Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 no one? Hi, Oxyyy, aber die Bilder gibt es noch http://hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=937492&tab=more http://hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=937511&tab=more lg Matti Quote
Guest Autokiller677 Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Yeah, the pics are there, but what about the info tab with the details?! Quote
GreenKiller Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 I uploaded a CPU-Z-result ( http://hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=937912 ) and it says that this one doesnt count because iits my best result, but i only have another CPU-Z-result with another processor. I just want my 0.1 pts Quote
der8auer Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 (edited) What about a combination of rev3 and rev2? For 20 or less results the rev2-Point-System and everything above using the new system. So everything would be fine. Popular hardware will be rewarded much and unpopular also a little bit but not too less.... Edited January 2, 2010 by der8auer Quote

I would be very pleased if you think about this, and give this Idea a chance. Quote

TiN Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 Bug on script which shows big submission pics (screenshot/photos etc) with Opera 10 browser. When hit pic - all browser screed fade dark and nothing happen. Leftclick - exits, and back to normal. Again click on pic - box appear, sizing more, and shows content okay. With IE6.0 everything ok from first try. On Rev2 with same browser everything was ok too. Quote
