Hi!
<p>
Correct me if I'm wrong but I understood the scoring system as the
1st position gets 100 points and all the others a percentage of this
comparing the 1st place score to theirs.
e.g. 1st place 10000 points 100 marp score
x place 4500 points 45 marp score
<p>
But I discovered this with Tetris Sega Bootleg...
1st place 168842 points 100 marp score
my score 15900 points 4(!!!) marp score
<p>
Shouldn't I have received 1 or even 0 score!??!?!?!

MARP scoring system

A mistake late in the night:
<p>
With the above score it was close to 1/10 not 1/100 of the top score
so I should have received 9 points as my score is 9% of 100%=top.
<p>
Still my question stays!

Ah - well, you're nearly right, but there's a 15% gap between 1st and 2nd place - so if 1st place scores 100,001 and 2nd place scores 100,000 points, 1st will get 100 points, and 2nd will get 85 points. This continues on down for all places.
<p>
The way it works, is that each player gets 85% of the score which the person above them gets, times the ratio of the two scores. The 85% thing was intended to make people more keen to compete - you're guaranteed to gain at least 15 points when you move up from 2nd to 1st in a game.
<p>
There's some discussion going on in a different thread at the moment about changing how this all works again, but until any clear consensus is arrived at, I think I'll leave it alone...

about scoring system, i think that if we want to have more upload
with big records a good way is:
<p>
1) Use the compound percentage of 15% (or more) only for place after
the third (4,5,6,ecc.)
<p>
2) Use the average. If you don't have a certain average
(20,30,40,ecc.) you cannot figure in the top ten leadership.
<p>
Using this two method will probably guarantee that is more convenient
to upload record that are up of the average admitted
