Website for Global Rankings

[chboing]

QUESTIONS :

1/ On this screenshot, I've selected : SpeedLap/All/All/-/OverallRanking and I see that Akfurtif is #3 with a higher average than Connavar who is #2 (877 vs 853). Is it a bug ? What is the difference between sorting by "OVERALL" and sorting by "AVERAGE" ?

when you enter a time you get a score. Overall is the total amount of score you have.
Average is the average score.

Akfurtif's got only 62 records in the database while connavar has 64.
so he is behind cause the total score is lower. He should pass connavar soon, when he'll enter the last two times he lacks.

2/ Small bug : when we don't enter any Track or Speed Class, an empty image with a red cross appears. Would be better to display a blank image.

i have no such problems ...

ps: oh and by the way, you'll be happy to see i've entered some times into the venom section just for you !
have fun !

chboing, thanks for the explanations about the rankings. and thanks for entering my SL times in Venom you must have been laughing when you saw the ridiculous lap times but i will get them better, stay tuned

[Connavar]

A few suggestions though :
- in the selection box, rename "ELITE" to "ELITE (SL + TT)" so that everyone knows what it means

Non Elite players don't need to know what this is

2/ Small bug : when we don't enter any Track or Speed Class, an empty image with a red cross appears. Would be better to display a blank image.

Fixed, thanks for the bug report.

3/ Small bug : the logos are not as beautiful on Internet Explorer 7 than on Forefox, as you can see on the screenshot.

I couldn't make it work, don't use IE that's it!

Thanks for the feedback
There are still some features to be added but i'm taking my time now...

Being able to print out your times would be nice,like all TT or SL times.
That way I could check if I have entered the latest ones.

[Asayyeah]

great idea Blackwiggle

Ok this can be done soon, I guess you want a very clean print right?
No pictures or anything.

Overall + International rankings have been improved,
albeit a bit slower:

Now the default ordering is on the "index" which is a value computed
from the total number of points and total number of records.

Results shown appear more representative than before.

Basically it's like a mix between the AVERAGE and the TOTAL.

Average only is bad because someone who only did 1 good record and nothing
else, will be near the top, total only is bad for the same reasons (lots of bad
records), so here we have something in between, more fair!

For instance, on ALL/ALL/Phantom/Overall,
Asayyeah was #1 with 864 avg, 68264 points, 79 records
pirhapac was #2 with 828 avg, 63732 points, 77 records
Wellington86 was #3 with 966 avg, 61852 points, 64 records

Now Asayyeah is #2 with an index of 859 (close to his average because he
uploaded 79 out of 80 records), and Wellington86 is #1 with an index of 863,
and pirhapac is #3.

[blackwiggle]

Yes ,just a clean print would be brilliant,something that shows the date you printed it out if possible.

[Connavar]

Sorry blackwiggle, haven't had time to make that PRINT functionality yet.
However I did another really good (I think) update:

1) Teams have been updated!
Now with a lot more information about the racers, so you can tell who's an EGX
specialist, guess?
Thanks Haydn for the original idea.

On top of that the ship is now clickable/filterable, so you can look at your
best records done with a FEISAR for instance!

2) Now if you highlight a row and click on it
(without clicking on a link), then you'll jump to a useful section, for instance
if you go to the main page showing all recently updated times and click on a row
which contains SL/Metropia/Phantom/Recently you'll actually jump to the rankings
of SL/Metropia/Phantom, which is most useful!
Damn I've wanted that feature for a long time hehe

3) Toggles:
Click on a flag/ship/player to show rankings with the specified flag/ship/
player, click again to show without

4) It's now easier to tags players with a flag (can click on a flag picture)

5) Printing coming next, already got the icon + a surprise (thanks chboing)

Cheers,

a really savage site,it would be great if the psn rakings were like this

[SaturnReturn]

Do ties gained in tournaments get you anthing? Are they recorded anywhere? I just got a 1.40.83 on Vineta K. Can I register it in multiplayer race times?

[KGB]

If it was a multiplayer tourney then it will show up in your personal records, so yes of course you can enter it.

[SaturnReturn]

Well that just made my whole freakin day worthwhile. AWESOME!!!! Thanks I'm a little happy.

[d4onps]

I don't know if this has been mentioned, but it would be great if there was a form page that has listed all of the rows automatically filled out for each record so one can just go down the list entering times and not all the other info. Message me if you're interested in hosting and/or scripting.

[Connavar]

272 rows? That's an idea. Normally what I do is go to some ranking then add 1 record,
the site will automatically fill some of the blanks...

[d4onps]

Yeah, just an idea to perhaps make it quicker for new members to add all their scores. Once they're in, it's a piece of cake to modify. I have another question now as I'm going through and putting in scores. I've seen mention of this but I don't understand what's going on completely. Are some scores not being posted to the SL leaderboards, or does it take a while, or what? If they don't then I have to resort to looking at the personal times list and it seems as if it does not distinguish between Single Race and Multiplayer times in that list, is that right? So, because I didn't know the answers to these questions I've just been going through and playing the tracks again.

I have another idea for your already awesome website. I think it would be cool if you had a column that showed the Overall Ranking for each record. So for example, if I'm looking at all of my records I know where I'm ranking for each one without having to the leaderboard for each record. Perhaps there is already a way that I haven't discovered.
Anyway, I love the website, and would love to contribute. Message me on psn if you need help with inputting times, coding, hosting, etc.

[Connavar]

Well it could be good but I don't want to have too many columns, I'll message you later,
help is always welcomed

[Motorsagmannen]

after adding times im now #32 over all venom speedlap. SWEET edit: and #21 on flash omg lol AWESOME xD
P.s seems like the way ro climb in rank really is adding times, will do it more in the future. and btw connavar this leaderboard rocks. it is one of the best i have seen in any game

[prttoettoet]

Hi Connovar, top website.

A question:

In the matrix you have the possibility to watch your score, rank and date.
Is it also possible to show your time. So you can print both and see which races are bad and which time of yourself is to beat?

Greetings

Yeah! You anticipated me! I thought the same... even more... would be nice that clicking on it opens the usual edit dialog to modify it.

[prttoettoet]

That would be very easy
