|ron Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Hi Pieter, if I understood, for each week of benchmark, you'll take in account the better 3 results for each country... then you'll calculate the average and the first 10 countries will earn points, ordered by their average. At the end, the country with more points will win the competition, the prizes go to the first six countries... but how will you decide which person/team from that country will receive the ln2 pot? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 That's correct. So: 1) people submit results => results are grouped per country 2) the score of a country is calculated based on the average of the best 3 scores of the country 3) per stage, points are awarded to the best 8 countries; 1st = 10, 2nd = 8, and so on. 4) at the end of the competition, all points are added up to each other and we have a finalized country ranking. From the logs, we see what users have scored the most points. So: Winning country => top 3 best scoring users get each one prize 2nd country => top 2 best scoring users get each one prize 3rd country => best score user get one prize Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|ron Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Allright thanks! But... in the competition page it's written that there are 2xF1, 2xTek5.0 and 2xNB-1. So it wouldn't have been rather 3xF1, 2xTek5.0 and 1xNB-1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 If it was possible, we would have chosen 6x Gulftown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|ron Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 If it was possible, we would have chosen 6x Gulftown Mmhh I didn't understand... I wasn't trying to dispute about the prizes, I was only trying to understand to do an Official thread on HwProject in which I'll explain everything. My confusion was generated about the numbers... "2x 2x 2x" is 6. Evend 3x+2x+1x is 6, but distributed in a different way, that was the point I didn't understand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 Hehe, I know, no worries . The best user of the winning country will have the choice between the 3 containers, then the second best of winning country, then the third best. After that the best user of the second country ... and so on. Some people already have a good CPU container, so maybe they want a GPU container instead .

|ron Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Oh, that's good, now it's clear! So, apart from the prizes, let's clock Pieter, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richba5tard Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 We have let 6 cooling pots made to order (with sweet HWBOT.org engraving ). The top 3 submitters of the winning country get to choose one, than the top 2 submitters of the second country gets to choose one, and the best submitter of the third country gets what's left over. We could say the winning country gets CPU pots, 2nd country gets GPU pots and 3rd country gets NB pots, but the fact is many people already have a CPU/GPU/NB pot, so we let them choose.

George_o/c Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Hey everybody, can I ask something as well ? I'm rather confused regarding which benchmark shall we bench during first week (4-11 November). Here, as well as here and here, I can see you're talking about SuperPi 1M. That's what I thought as well. However, according to this newspost, our first benchmark will be SuperPi 32M. Could you please help me out a bit ? It seems like SuperPi 1M is the one that's going to be benched during the first week, I just want an official confirmation. George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richba5tard Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 It is superpi 1m, do not trust anything I say I'll edit that news post asap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roby The Beast (Tracteur) Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 This competition is a good idea But it could be fun to make a competition for who are not able to have LN2 or a monster CPU at 1000$... Example making a competition of Super Pi a 4GHz, the one who makes the best time a 4GHz win! It will be more tweaking and it will be more accessible to everybody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share Posted October 31, 2009 I think people will be surprised when they see how little LN2 will be used in this competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
