Website for Global Rankings

amplificated,

I double checked and indeed I was mistaken: my SL Venom on AP gives me a quite low score, esp. compared to my other scores on this track (SL & TT) which were the ones that bugged me: they are quite strong compared to the rest of my matrix.

Thus while I wondered if AP had a different value in the formula and if the stiffer competition had something to do with it.

Though upon further inspection, it seems that I am closer from the best time (even though there is way more people between me and the top) at AP than on other tracks. Which I guess is kinda cool for my ego :redface:

Damn man I'm slipping in the lists here >.< was a time when I was below the hundreds... oh happy days!

amplificated: Saturn is right, the system rewards Phantom records a bit more.
It took me a lot of iterations to get it right, and if you look at the overall
rankings, I think it does a good job. OBH is above you, but just look at his
matrix! He got some awesome times, and IMO fully deserves to be ranked this
high.

Also, I found a glitch in the matrix, the overall score on the right would be wrong
like 90% of the time, now it's correct!!

WOW thanks guys! I just put all my speed laps in, and im ranked 55 in the WORLD! wow thanks heaps i feel like iv achieved something even though all iv done is waste time playing computer games lol.

AND Iv just been checking all my times and some of my best times are not the times on the server!
why isnt the server copy being updated?

Not sure which server you speak of?

I doubt that Connavar would be able to simply get "copies" of the official leaderboards and the process of data input seems quite time consuming and has to be done manually in part. It is my understanding that Connavar and chboing made some giant updates in the past (600 and 400 days ago I suppose, seeing how old are my times from back then) to fill in the boards but cannot do that on a regular basis. So each user has the ability to add and edit his own new times. Keepting the tables updated is a collective effort.

But since you updated some times yourself, I may just have misunderstood you?

which server! (face palm) the SL server of course!

I suspected that... :paperbag
The SL server has always been somewhat random but yeah I concur that the pattern for (non-)updates is even more confusing now.

Sorry for the lecture.

ahhh well..... one day the sony servers will die and all we will have is that website. thanks C.

Actually we've been collecting data for a long time, but there are just so many
glitched times, sure the current filter already works very well but still cannot
filter everything perfectly, sometimes a new player scores 1000 points with
a slightly better time than the previous top time, so either he's a REALLY good
new player, or it's just a glitch.

Now I decided that it's a glitch, you don't really see a new player suddenly
score a world record. So all the new records scored by players outside the top
100 let's say, will be discarded.

So expect new, CLEAN, records updates soon.

The updating of the times on the Phantom multiplayer tables (not checked any others) seems to be not working at the moment, there's 3 or 4 of mine that haven't updated after about a week!
