Sadari scoring - all uploaded scores should change?

Kaidi Echitra · Post by **Kaidi Echitra** » Thu May 24, 2001 12:30 pm

Okay, here goes...


Sadari, as it is now, is currently dealing with ties (and they're a pain in the neck).



I'd like to propose a new scoring system:



10,000*last level played (the current scores) + points remaining



So my current recording would be changed from 8 to 78,950 (and I have another recording which would be worth 79,930 under this scale).



This would help eliminate ties by a long way, I think, and it gives people an incentive to try and minimize their losses on the last level anyway (even if they'd still finish in the hole).



Comments welcome.

You're right : scoring had to be change on this game ; your proposal
seems to be good, but I have to study the game more to be 100% sure
your scoring is good ...



For example if I reach level 8 with a positive score and then suicide
(I mean outpass the horizontal deadline) then I will not have the
substracting at the end of level and get 80000+ , better than someone
reaching level 8 and play normally after that

Good point, Phil.


Clarification #1: If someone crosses the dead-line, that level is
NOT counted towards levels played, but the points remaining are still
in.



This means that if you were to suicide and had a score of 1300 on
level 8, your score would be 71,300 (not 81,300).

ok I play several games yesterday night, and this scoring seems to be
good for me : 10000x(number of FINISHED levels) + points remaining
when you loose



I will eventually had it in the "special scorings" page we built with
Lagavulin (link is in the RULES for those who have forgotten) and
submit a score using this scoring, barring any indication to the
contrary from any editor in the next, let's say, 2 or 3 days



So, editors, we need your opinions (and help to eventually edit all
scores of course)



Thanks

Done ... I've updated "system scorings" page (and also my mahjong
page, including all m37b12 games - links both available in the banner
in "rules" section)



A call to all marpers : let me know if there is another games with
special scorings I've forgotten in this page



And a proposal : maybe we should apply same type of scoring used in
neodrift for gtmr (and clones) ? waiting for your advices

would be good to give the url of that scoring system page, or at
least how to get there from the site. It's at the bottom of the
RULES page. only problem i see currently is that for fighting games,
one game is missing.

i thought there was a mahjong game added on the latest beta too but i
forgot what it was, but then again maybe i was thinking of b14.
