"4th out of 861" - I prefer "tied for 2nd"

Very nice run!

Thanks man! I actually just started a thread about this in the staff section looking for some input lol:

Right now, a tie on the bot ends up with the user who submitted first taking the higher position. Because this hobby is one that is largely based on competing with old hardware and time is not a very relative metric, I suggest the following changes.

 

Take this example (me!!) for consideration:

 

 

 

Mothod 1:

For a tie, the points normally given to the users would be added together and divided by the number of users (an average). In the rankings, all users would show as having the same rank.

 

For example:

 

(39.8+33.5+29.7)/3 = 34.3 points each

 

1. 4sec 437ms 49.9pts

2. 4sec 453ms 34.3pts

2. 4sec 453ms 34.3pts

2. 4sec 453ms 34.3pts

5. 4sec 464ms 27.2pts

 

 

Method 2:

The other way to divvy points would be to give them all whatever 2nd place normally receives, in this case 39.8 points. The 5th place user would still receive the points that 5th place normally awards.

 

For example:

 

1. 4sec 437ms 49.9pts

2. 4sec 453ms 39.8pts

2. 4sec 453ms 39.8pts

2. 4sec 453ms 39.8pts

5. 4sec 464ms 27.2pts

 

 

Note that all users receive 2nd place as well as the same amount of points (as is fair with a tie). Each would also receive a silver cup, in this instance.

 

What are your thoughts and opinions?

I somehow managed to run WPrime higher than Pi 1M... Time for another session...

As always, this was with the last few drips of LN2.
