Leaderboard Poll: Step 2

[Weehawk]

Here we go.

The issue has been discussed most recently here:

Note well:

The first option represents a significant change to our current system of leaderboard points. It basically means there will be a significant limit to how many submissions for each game receive any points.

The second option, if prevailing, would leave us with the possibility of mildly tweaking the current formula, but essentially would result in the leaderboard remaining pretty much as is.

This should prove the most interesting point of contention in the process.

What are we going to do?

the items in this poll are misleading, some one for the original leaderboard could vote for either option logically.

1 because Yes i'm in favour of the current leader board because the points eveturally "falls below a certain threshold", the threshold being about 7 places below first it's not likely you get more than a few points i.e. 15%*7>100.

2 because No, I'm in favour of the current leaderboard because there is no cutoff, there isn't a direct cutoff in the leaderboard there is an indirect one.

If, by "original leaderboard" you mean the current leaderboard, then that someone would vote for the second poll option.

I understand the previous (and original) leaderboard system awarded points only to the top three places on each game. Someone in favor of that would vote for the first poll option.

duh, yeah current, i only mispoke original because it looks like it's not going to be the current one. still misleading, if there are people out there that want to keep the current system.

I forgot to vote for NO cutoff, too. I think at first I couldn't work out which way to vote, because the question isn't particularly clear, and then having put off voting I forgot about it.

The current leaderboard has an implicit cut off, and it really isn't clear whether that's a 'YES' or a 'NO' vote the way this poll was phrased.

Surely it's not important to decide whether to use a 'cutoff' (the 'yes' vote) or a 'formula' (the 'no' vote), since any 'cutoff' scheme is a kind of formula anyway.

I forgot to vote.
cut off poor scorespoint.

to tell the truth,I do not care any LB points.
just hate to see trillions of worthless score to see.

but I want to see special LOW score rather than marplike poor recordings.

for example,I do not want to see +2,000,000 points at pipe dream.
but want to see -410,000 points at it.
I do not want to see +500,000 points at Ninja Kid 2.
but want to see -300 points at it.
I do not want to see 200,000 points at alpine ski.
but want to see 998,000 (-2000) at it.
