K404 Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 With the existing Xtreme League rules.... and the new criteria & setup for the Pro (team) League..... what do benchers do if they are: *think they are too-heavily supported to be in the Xtreme league *employed or well supported by a particular company *Using latest-Gen ES or non-released hardware *submitting scores from company-supported events *any other situations i've missed At the moment, it feels like there is "a void" and some benchers have "nowhere to be" I'd like to see all of this stuff clarified (and hopefully added to the rules/ league page) Thanks Quote
knopflerbruce Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 # 1 + 2 would mean pro oc I think. # 3 means you either must go pro, or unboint those scores. They can still be in the database, though. No comments on # 4 + 5. These words are not official answers, just my thoughts. Quote
xxbassplayerxx Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 What if they don't want to do Pro OC Cup? Out of luck and find somewhere else to compete? Quote
hokiealumnus Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 What if they don't want to do Pro OC Cup? Out of luck and find somewhere else to compete? Short answer: Yes. Or continue submitting for no personal ranking and have the points count toward the team, which is the path I'm going down. Quote
xxbassplayerxx Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Hmmm... So the rankings and all of that stuff effectively continue... they're just not publicized now? To explain, if a Pro Cup member of OCN was to submit an 8800GTX score, it would get scored as normal, he just wouldn't receive the points for the Pro Cup? Quote
hokiealumnus Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Yes, that's correct. As I understand it, we limbo'ers will still get hardware and global points (and team power points), which will be applied to our total and to our team. We just won't have an individual rank, per se'. The results will still be listed in the hardware rankings, but we aren't competing in an individual league. Quote
Massman Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Hmmm... So the rankings and all of that stuff effectively continue... they're just not publicized now? To explain, if a Pro Cup member of OCN was to submit an 8800GTX score, it would get scored as normal, he just wouldn't receive the points for the Pro Cup? Correct. The Pro OC Cup benchmark submissions are technically of the same type like the submissions you make in the Team Cup, Country Cup or any other HWBOT competition. They count towards the Team in the same way all other submissions do. The only difference between the previous Pro OC League and the current Pro OC Cup is that Pro OC members are no longer ranked individually in a ranking based on their benchmark result portfolio, but solely based on the Cup. A Pro OC Cup participant can contribute to the main team in the same way they could before. Nothing changed in that regard. Quote
Crew pro Posted March 5, 2013 Crew Posted March 5, 2013 so just to clarify, I have no league now? im not allowed in OC league Quote
hokiealumnus Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 so just to clarify, I have no league now? im not allowed in OC league Welcome to my world! You guys want to form a limboclocker's Pro OC team? Quote
der8auer Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 so just to clarify, I have no league now? im not allowed in OC league Anybody who is not 100% sponsored can move back to XOC league. Only few members are not allowed to go back like Andre or Vince for obvious reasons. Mind that you are not allowed to use latest gen ES CPUs in the XOC league tho. Quote
knopflerbruce Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Just curious, who else except those two? ...and when Andre doesn't work for ASUS, there's only Vince left + those I do not remember. Quote
K404 Posted March 7, 2013 Author Posted March 7, 2013 Nick Shih!! Elmor!! Kinc! Y'know... those guys that no-one has ever heard of :p Quote
Bobnova Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Now that XOC is full of Pros again, can we drop down to Enthusiast if we aren't 100% extreme cooling? Quote
knopflerbruce Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Nick Shih!! Elmor!! Kinc! Y'know... those guys that no-one has ever heard of :p I remembered Nick 2 minutes after posting I didn't know Elmor and Kinc worked for some companies. I just recently read that Dino is a jigga emplyee, too:p I don't really pay much attention, do I?!? Though it's not about working for a company in the end, it's what sort of support you get. You sit there killing Titans like a mofo (like Vinbo is doing these days), you're for sure a pro. You work for Gigabyte and get a UP7 or two... that's something completely different. I guess Dino has access to more than that, though:D Quote
sumonpathak Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 so...how do you define 100% Sponsored? am kinda confused here.... Sponsored/non sponsored was kinda easy to understand....but 100%? Quote
GENiEBEN Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 so...how do you define 100% Sponsored? am kinda confused here....Sponsored/non sponsored was kinda easy to understand....but 100%? 9-5 ask and get? :woot: Quote
