Website for Global Rankings

I'll check out the vid and add some times. I'm an average pilot, so I'm sure my times wont make anyone up there too scared :)

Doesn't matter dude! More important to get new faces on the site. Post away! Never feel they aren't fast enough, we all start somewhere!

Hello, haven't been here for a while, but the ranking website is still running!

..and we love you for it, thanks Connavar :) :+

Great site Connavar.

I have a few questions about the overall ranking if you don't mind.

1. Is Phantom weighted higher than other classes for overall rank? I've noticed a few pilots with a higher overall ranking that have a lower average and a lower number of entered times. I looked at their matrices, and their scores are mostly in the Phantom class.

2. Is there a penalty for not having Syncopia races, time trials, and speedlaps? I noticed a significant boost in averages for the few events I've completed on Syncopia, but I can't tell if my scores are being brought down for not having some of them added.

3. I figured that on average, not having an event added drops the total weighted score for that track by about 50 points for each event not added (for example, if I had a 1000 score on a time trial, but no other scores added, then it seems like my total score for that track for a specific speed class would be around 850).

4. For those events where 1 pilot has a lead time posted by around 2-3 seconds higher than anyone else, I have an incredibly low score even for being in the top 50. Is it better to not post my time for that event or leave it in for overall ranking?

Thanks!

@Connavar: And i hope it will be running for ages ^^.
Thx for it, that's the best wipeout hd's tool. It make the game 10 times better for lots of reasons, in my eyes.
Every games should have a cool and interactive leaderboard like this one.
If i was developing a racing game, that's how i'll wanted the leaderboard to be on the official website :)

would be cool a facebook app\page that share any record update in real time!
a lot of people use facebook, can be usefull...the new records will show up in the home so you can see them instead of refreshing the site anytime

Very good idea!

Hello!
mannjon:
#1: yes, phantom gives more points
#2: something like that ...
#3: true, because it makes sense, do you think you deserve 1000 points for a track if you only did time trial on it? The site will reward all-rounded pilots
#4: yes, that's true, the algorithm was working well until people started performing crazy BR!

=> about the #4, I can improve the algorithm to make it really fair (it's not bad I think but it can become perfect), I have the solution in my head.

However, since there will be a new Wipeout compilation soon, I plan to redo the whole site from scratch to accomodate the new game!!!

The site will be basically the same as this one but much better optimized + you will be able to choose multiple games (new filter), so it can support the PSP + PS3 + Vita + PS4 games + the Events section will be working ... finally.

the good thing with PS4 is, no1 can argue anymore to not post video, cause PS4 records your gameplay, and it's easy as it can get to edit everything and upload it to multiple sites as YouTube / twitch and stuff.
edit 1: with one of the latest firmware updates it's possible now to record up to 60 minutes of gameplay!
edit 2: i predict however, that it'll not be possible to best any WR made on PS3 played with d-pad. hear my words, DS3 is far superior to DS4 in terms of d-pad acrobatics ;)
