I see my times have been added too. Not sure if this was an automatic process or done by somebody, but thanks nontheless.
Glad to see I still have a few top 5 spots in there. =)

It does read that way. Sorry didn't mean it to. Just ment it to be that i've not really set my sights on tt yet and i can't be cocky i only race flash unlike alot of the others. I'm going to be looking at some of them rapier top 10 times soon and see if i can get up there
Huge update, I've been coding new features for a week now, so here's what's new:
1) You can add/edit FLAGS for everyone who isn't
registered on the website!
How to do that? Just click on someone's name (I advise to go to INTERNATIONAL
rankings first), then at the bottom of the screen you can set the flag.
It's important to find the countries of the top players without a flag, that way
we can have a better overall international ranking!
2) Comments have appeared!! They are specific for each Mode/Track/Class/
Filter combination, I did this to have constructive comments and not just a
global shout box.
Thanks bik3rluke for the security fixes.
+ just added support for [ b ][ /b ] [ i ][ /i ] [ u ][ /u ] [ url='link' ][ /url ]
+ basic smileys
3) Redesign to make things easier to read for new users.
4) Small but useful details:
- if you click on [Mode] it'll reset the Mode to "ALL", same for Track, Class,
Filter, and Player (will delete it), without reloading the page.
If you use the website a lot, you'll appreciate this feature ;)
- < and > buttons will reload the page correctly this time, was most annoying.
- when you add new times, the form appears on top of the rankings (thanks
chboing for the idea), which is nicer.
- fixed internet explorer compatibilities, it now looks almost as good as when
using firefox.
- you can now order all the results the way you want, by clicking on the column
header.
5) Coming soon:
- International rankings update, with score of the 5 top players per country.
- Merging of different player names (wotan idea).
now your site is almost perfect Connavar, i'll just add the venon and flash times soon (already started for flash)
and now everybody, FIGHT to climb the ladder !
:banzai
Something like this should of been incorporated into HD.
I need to update some rapier records i think.
Well done Connavar. Superb :beer
Huge thanks for all the guys who took part of that amazing project this site is !
Of course Connavar is the one who started with this idea and run that cool site. i must reckon it gaves a so fantastic 'emulation' to all those players who are fightin to reach the ultimate scores !
Keep up the good work mates
Update in the contributors section:
- 1 point is given for each record you add
- 100 points are given for each user you identify with a flag
- you can also see WHO added your times (or anyone's):
1) go to the contributors section
2) enter a player name
(or do 2 then 1)
Then you'll see who added the records for the given player.
For instance, yeldar2097 got 85 records:
- I added 8 of those
- chboing added 57
- yeldar2097 added 27
- Asayyeah added 3
Kinda useless feature but I didn't even need to code it, I just discovered it!
It just resulted from the filtering system.
Edit: LOL you can even see who added a given time for a particular event,
just add some filters, like Speed Lap / Vineta-K / Phantom,
and you'll see that chboing added that yeldar's time :)
Also fixed various bugs, and improved the comments:
Now you can "private message" someone:
- first choose a player (in the text field), and then post the comment
- if you want to see all the messages addressed to you, just enter your name
(in the text field)
The Comments section is used to see all the comments filtered by the filters
you choose, so you can decide to view all the comments in phantom category,
or all the comments in Speed Lap / Anulpha Pass / ALL classes, etc etc!
Now I'm working on getting the International ranking to work...
a bit harder than expected, to have a fair ranking system.
I just realized that the WOHD online records for Multiplayer are way out.
I was writing down my times when playing in a online tournament last night and I was beating nearly every track by at least 2 sec,some as much as 13 sec!.
I could understand maybe bettering times on a few tracks of a tournament by 1-2 sec,but all tracks,and by huge margins.
God knows how long it has been since Multiplayer has been updated,but looking at my results from last night, I think it's safe to say all my times for Multiplayer have been bettered,but I have no way of know what the times actually are.
The only way to access your online times is when your online,there is no personal record kept of them.
So keep a sheet of paper and a pen handy when your racing online guys,and write your times down as you get them,then enter them in Connavars site.
You might surprise yourself with the results.:lol
Huge thanks to Leungbok, he made fantastic logos, I don't know how he did,
but they look just as good as the original ones!

I can't find the enter a new record entry anywhere now. All I can find is to edit existing ones.
/edit: Nevermind, read first post.
WOW international ranking is finally done!!
The query is incredibly long (so it takes also some time to process), but it works.
It's named "international 2" in the filters, because I also kept the original one.
For instance,
Multiplayer / Phantom:
UK is #1 (855 avg)
Wellington86, osama-bin-haydn, Greenix, kgb1971, Amorbis
France #2 (819 avg)
Wotan998, kingheim, Asayyeah, Daguet_Rapide, pirhapac
^ It basically tells you the optimal teams for each country hehe.
Elite / Phantom:
France is #1 (877 avg)
pirhapac, kingheim, Wotan998, Asayyeah, AkFurtif
UK #2 (694 avg).
Wellington86, Amorbis, benbogog, Greenix, Alejess
Interesting... :)
I'll have to get KIGO to put in his TT and SL times,he doesn't even appear on the International 2 Elte rankings.:eek
Brilliant absolutely brilliant !!
You did that for HD, imagine Rob and you doing that for the whole wipeout games : database is existing through wipeoutzone records section but i guess Rob has no time for doing that kind of 'datas-extraction-transfer ' and that shall be extremely hard to modify the datas quickly to fit to your system Connavar.
I know i can dream but such a thing would be the true Bible-records of the whole Wipeout franchise !!!!
blackwiggle: at least he's in the multiplayer list!
Asayyeah: merci beaucoup!
I think the 2 systems have a different philosophy, Rob's is more about friends,
wipeoutzone members, and relies on them not lying about scores and so on,
so it can be done for older wipeouts as well, which is great.
Mine wouldn't work with another wipeout (except Pulse, and if you want I'll do it,
especially because I bought the game recently...), because it needs data which
can be checked and approved, and since there is an official leaderboard for HD,
this can be done.
Multiplayer is where I really need to pull my finger out and play more,it's mainly because of the time differences that I've neglected this,by the time a lot of players come online I'm Wiped out and ready to crash.
The online boards don't have anybody on them a lot of the time when it's good for me.
My rankings suck in that regard,too much time doing TT and SL's
I really need to up my game and help the UK close in on the French in Elite rankings. :paperbag I think I also really need to learn to do some shortcuts and barrel rolls on a lot of tracks.
This is all great, Connavar, all we need now is for SL to give you a call and find a way to automatically pump the times and stats they have recorded into your database, somehow.... :)
I don't quite understand Elite, could someone explain please. :frown:
It`s a ranking that is calculated by combining your results in Speed Lap and Time Trial :banzai
Cheers Lunar, is that just in phantom or any class?
EDIT: sorry, i have read all the thread now, which is what i should of done to begin with. I don't think i have even done time trials on some of the tracks yet!!
Connavar, you just made me a very happy person indeed. I noticed that Holland/Belgium was 3rd in international2. That was already great news. Then I set it to Elite/Phantom and not only is Holland/Belgium 2nd (on average), but I'm in the top5. Ultimate awesome-ness.
One of the best websites ever.
someone sticky this. its fantastic.
smashes the life out of SLs board, i hope theyve seen how it should be done.
are you able to elaborate further on the team data?? mainly whos raccing for which team, highest average etc.
other than that, the title should send you back to the HP now you have a chatbox :g
edit:
I also updated CP phantom multiplayer times.
wellington - 2.01.83
osama-bin-haydn - 2.01.84 :blarg:bomb
Cool, thanks!
What you can already do is enter your name and see which ships you use the most.
But I think I got an idea that should satisfy you :)
Thanks for adding times, make sure to add extra information (best lap in this case).
It was interesting to see that I am in fact Italian and not British:lol
I have been a bit unorganized writing down my times as I beat them,heaps of pieces of paper with stuff scribbled down,usually forgetting to write down what speed class or track the times were from,meaning I have to go back into the records to get the info.
So I though there has to be a better way.
I went into Word and made up a patch of record times papers that I can just print off.
All the tracks listed down the left side,with 4 columns listing time/lap/speed pads/craft.
So much easier,just write at the top of the page what sort of racing it is [Multi/TT/SL/single],and the date you do it on.
Also good for keeping a reference of your Multiplayer records at hand,just look at it after every online race to see if you have beaten it.
Blackwiggle: A good way to do it!
I´m always, and I think a lot of wipers do, keeping a piece of paper with my pb´s next to me (at least the multiplayer records ...), when racing. If beating a personal best, I more than often wake up my children, shouting Hallelujah, but at the same time I double-check with the SL-rankings build in to WO HD, before posting the results to Connovar´s more than brilliant site.
I think the results/pb´s on Connavar´s site really depends on wipers writing down records that can be certificied through SL's rankings.
I've just be playing around with the list [I'm running blind using office,trial and error :lol] but I've just made it even easier.
Tracks are listed down the left as before,but now I have in next two columns pre entered info that I just have to circle.
So now it's like this
1]Tracks
2]Choice of circling [Multi-SL-Single-TT]
3]Choice of circling [ Ag-Ass-Egx-Fei-Got-Har-Ica-Mir-Pir-Qui-Tri]
4]Time
5]Lap
6]Pads
I was going to put the word file as an attachment so you guys could use it instead of having to make up your own,but sadly its 52kb and exceeds the file size limit of what I can post.
Not to worry I just Zipped them,here you go guys.
I'm so confused. All the records on Wipeout HD are stored within the game saves right? So why not just make a note of the track? You can check them all with the in game records later and upload them to the the records site of awesomeness later right? Surely it's only online multiplayer that you need to make a note of the track. All the offline modes you can upload as and when, no? I must be missing something.
If you got a laptop running while playing, you can also update the times in
real-time, best way to do is to go to multiplayer-all-phantom-[your name],
and then you'll see your 16 records and you'll only need a few clicks to edit
one of them.
I have to go to another room to use a desk top,that's why I made up the list.
As I said before,I ended up with a heap of times and tracks written on pieces of paper and it got confusing [the number of times I picked up a list and found I had already entered and others found later which I hadn't]
I just thought I'd tidy up the whole procedure.
Which is now zipped and attached to my previous post if anybody wishes to use it.:lol
Well that makes perfect sense :D Maybe a snapshot of the screen to record the scores could work for some people too.
Wow very well done blackwiggle, I think I'll print that .doc file, might come in handy!
I've been working away at it since that last post.
Have a look at the new modified version [V1.1 world quickest updates :lol]
This is far better IMHO,looks a lot more professional.
New to this update.
1]Added speed column with pre entered multiple choice to speed class.
2] Now has a header with "WIPEOUT HD RACE DATA"
3] Header now has a place to enter date and name of racer.
4] Fonts changed and varied for easier reading
5]Time and Lap columns now spaced for minutes:seconds:10ths
@SaturnReturn:
You can also see you MP racetimes in the records section of the game. Pencil/paper records should only be necessary if you need to wake children and such :)
Yep, but if you don't want to leave a good online game then you wouldn't be able to enter all the details for online races right there, e.g. the extra data. Whereas you can easily end session in offline modes withouth missing out on anything.
FANTASTIC JOB ! even in my wildest dreams I never thought I would see anything like this ! The filtering system is flawless !
+1
+1
A few suggestions though :
- in the selection box, rename "ELITE" to "ELITE (SL + TT)" so that everyone knows what it means
- display an short description when the mouse cursor is 2 seconds over a column title (for example to understand what's the meaning of Average, Overall, or Count)
QUESTIONS :
http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/1238/classbug.th.jpg
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" ?
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.
3/ Small bug : the logos are not as beautiful on Internet Explorer 7 than on Forefox, as you can see on the screenshot.
Once again congrats for such a wonderful job :P you must have been coding for hours and hours !!! and the database requests are faaast. good optimization :P
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.
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 :lol but i will get them better, stay tuned :P
Non Elite players don't need to know what this is :lol
Fixed, thanks for the bug report.
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.
