CCC Point System

[Daniel3D]

Hi all.
For those that have visited the competition page, you might have noticed that the scoreboard has no point system.
That is not implemented yet.

I am creating a point system that fits this type of competition (so far with input from CAS and Alanrotoi)
and I think i have the basic setup ready.

The current concept is based on 4 incentives.

• Top ten fastest times get points (kind of standard)
• of the remaining times, Top 3 per car gets points (best of the rest and incentive to drive different cars)
• bonus points for uploading times with all available cars. (incentive to participate with all cars)
• increasing bonus for consecutive race participation (incentive to return every month)

Only the best time per player per car is shown on the scoreboard.
If for a car all the times end up in the top 10, no aditional points are given.

Points to gain (Concept)
Top ten times are rewarded with:

1st place	12 Points
2nd place	11 Points
3th place	10 Points
4th place	9 Points
5th place	8 Points
6th place	7 Points
7th place	6 Points
8th place	5 Points
9th place	4 Points
10th place	3 Points

Of the remaining times a top 3 per car is awarded with,

1st place	3 Points
2nd place	2 Points
3th place	1 Point

Everyone who uploads replays of all allowed cars gets 5 points.
Plain and simple,
For every consecutive race in a season, you get 1 cumulative point extra.
This to a maximum of 10 points. If you miss one race you start at 0 again.

1st race	0 Points
2nd race	1 Point
3th race	2 Points
4th race	3 Points
5th race	4 Points
6th race	5 Points
7th race	6 Points
8th race	7 Points
9th race	8 Points
10th race	9 Points
11th race	10 Points
12th race	10 Points

Turns out not to be really fair. Those up the scoreboard already get a lot of points. These 5 extra don't mean much.
For those lower on the scoreboard they are more meaningful.

• I am thinking of combining these two in a way. But only apply them to Replays that are left without points after the top 10 and the car points are given.

For now. I have changed it to. If you post a replay with all allowed cars you get a minimum of 1 point per sent replay.

I don't know if this is a balanced system. I also don't know if it is fair.
I do think it will be fun, and possibly make it more exiting in the lower ranks.

Very interesting point system. I would like to see it in action!

In this system, it is possible for one player to end with several cars in the top 10, and thus getting a lot of points. In order to make that less predictable, I want to add a period of silent replays, like zakstunts.

Most of the reasoning behind this competition, the rules and the point system is to create something new.
I believe diversity can bring and hold more players. Once it is technical ready, I will try to get outside attention to the competitions.
I hope it will bring new players to our community.

The next race will be for points, I will keep track of them manually until it is technically implemented.
At the end of the year, the system will be reviewed for next season.

You have a few days left to make an account and try this race

Well, a scoreboard strategy would be I.e. you have about 30 minutes to spend racing per race so maybe racing with several cars instead of maxing out 1 lap only might be a way to gain more points. It has to be seen in action to know better how it will work.

That would work. And is kinda the intention. Better have several good times than one perfect one.

With the current status of only 4 times entered it can be very lucrative. Even if you don't have the fastest time with a car you can still get points for the car bonus (if it's outside the first 10)
