Post by Coco_ »

niktata is 1st ( 17:68 ) in WR table but Toringe is 1st ( 17:72 ) in Top 100 on level 14... besides, niktata is not in top 100 !!! what is wrong ?

Niktata probably has not sent in to the records section after he did the WR.
An another guy (jx) is 2nd in both Sink and Islands in the Sky, but he never sent in to the records section either, just to the WR section. Look at old WR-tables and yuo`ll find him.

Yes, the thinhg is, most likely Niktata has not send his state to Abula who updates records. px who updates world records, does not forward states to Abula, as far as I know.

Sometimes when a player gets a world record, he doesn't wish his state to be updated by Abula on records update (if Abula somehow got the state).

I think player who have a world record must update his TT on moposite to make stats more realistics... Because, Top 100 are wrong without some records ! :(

4th position in WC4 (DAMN YOU KARLIS!!!!) PWNED KARLIS IN WC5!!!!TT:39:2x:xx (you've got some playing to do Stini ;) ) When it's all over the question is not who was right. The question is who's left.

So, people will know a player is working on a WR... and ? Without his replay, it doesn't matter, no ? If another player know he is working on a level and want to beat him, he could try, but he would not be sure to success...

Then I think it does not matter and state should be updated. But coz I'm not a WR-maker, it is possible I can not understand that...

It does matter! If I'm getting a WR on a level I have been playing for some time, then I might have a "good" time on another level "signaling" I'm aiming for another WR as well (eg. might show I'm using a certain style or whatever), which might result in a lot of other people playing that level (which is something you don't want when you're aiming for a WR). So hence, it is good to not always tell all your times in public, which becomes the case when you're updating your state to the Records Section.

But there should be some regulation that will enable to updates states of guys with WR's after a certain period. I don't think niktata is still working on a WR.

It could be a rule that a year after someone sent his state for a WR and wasn't active on the WR table after that, and hasn't send in in his state to records, px sends that state to abula for updating.

Or what about only adding the wr time to the top100 list sand not his whole state?

Ya when i first came to moposite i found that all very confusing too. there should be some rule like that where they should put his time on the records list. when i first came here i thought that wr were mistaked and records were correct. just makes the whole website more formal i think.

THE solution could be to add a status "Show" for each record and to display only thoses for "Show" = true so ranking could be like :

Code: Select all

1. John ...
2. Zweq ...
4. Toringe ...
6. CLoud
...
Players with 3rd time and 5th time don't want to be known... It would be more realistic...

Samir, I think it is more stupid to answer as you did (without arguments)... :wink: Why do you think that :?:

My solution gives the real rank for players who accept to share their times ! Nothing stupid I this idea... Besides it is easy to realize !

I try to make moposite better, nothing else...

Hm, I dislike the idea of motivating people to hide their times, which this system sort of does.
