Tsukasa Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Maybe I don't understand the scoring system, but if it's like the HSC, then team commodore has 6 medals, not 2. I counted: 1 gold, in Hot-Dog(winter games) 2 silvers, Hurdles(summer games) and Ski-Jump(winter games) 3 bronze, 100y-dash(summer games), luge(winter games), and long-jump(track and field). As for weighted medals, I'm against that because it wasn't mentioned in the original post for team signup, and if the medals were weighted, it would cause a lot of unfair and unsportsman-like sniping.

The way I've done things, when there's a tie, the next medal is "skipped"... so for SG-Hurdles, since there are four people tied at 21.1s, they all get gold, and no silver or bronze is awarded... As for Ski Jump, jedijeff and MattyXB are tied at 177.7 and both get gold, while you have 177.6 and get bronze (ie, only three medals are awarded). For the Luge, two people are tied for first, so they both get gold, and then two people are tied for third, so they both get bronze and no silver is awarded... you're technically in 5th place in that one. I guess the numbering kinda makes it confusing, and it's not quite the same as the way I've done things in the HSC games, but that's the case. So, as it is, you have 1 gold in the Hot Dog, and 1 bronze in the Ski Jump. I've also updated the scoring... hopefully any miscounts have been corrected (but I'm doing this at about 3am, so who knows, right?) --Zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Maybe I don't understand the scoring system, but if it's like the HSC... There is only one, but important difference: If there is more than one winner of a medal, the next medal(s) are skipped. E.g. after two gold medals follows bronze, after one gold and two (or more) silver(s) there is no bronze medal. This is identical to the real Olympics or any other major international sport event.

Since my surfing has been beaten recently but is still on top of the list, there must be at least one error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyXB Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 I count now for USA the medals, because wonder me, that they lose 2 medals since the last update. And I count for this Team 26. Team USA SG = 6 WG = 7 AD = 9 TF = 4 === 26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedijeff Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 It's amazing how fast people are going on the emulated Track and Field. I have some time to play today so a couple updates for Team USA.

Thomas Jentzsch Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Wow, this is going to become a really close race. One single score of a team not even on top of the list could decide the final result. BTW: What is the tiebreaker when two or more teams have the same amount of medals? The number of gold medals? "EPYX scoring"? ...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerwannabee Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Ok this will probably be my last submissions for decathlon shot put: score 1161, distance:21.78 meters 100 meter dash: score 1086, time:9.96 seconds discuss: score 1138, distance 65.98 meters javelin: score 1041, distance: 84.92 meters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been using z26 on T&F using a mouse and keys and it been doing good but not as good as the others. Ironicly I used pcaewin 2.6 , in full screen it goes normal speed but in the windowed screen like jeff has it does slowdown the game a bit making it easier to mkae new scores.

Cybergoth Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Hi there! Uhm... please use my 25 Skeet Shooting for team Xype and remove all other Xype Skeet Shooting scores. Greetings, Manuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 When using an emulator, please make sure that it runs at full speed. If you are not sure, have a look at the docs. AFAIK all emulators allow to output or set the framerate which should be 60 fps. (e.g. for z26 use -n and check if it is around 60). If you have a significantly lower screenrate this will give you an (IMO unfair) advantage. Especially in the button smashing events (Decathlon, SG 100m, the first 5 events of T&F). But also more or less in each other event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ze_ro Posted August 29, 2004 Author Share Posted August 29, 2004 I've been trying most of the morning to break some of my scores, but with limited luck... I managed to boost my Surfing score up to 10,700, but I just can't seem to break 11k I've been TRYING to play some Decathlon, but lord help me, I suck at this game. These stupid joystick-waggling games just leave me with a sore arm afterwards. I don't know how you guys manage to do so well at these... half the time, I can barely get 800 and I'm already sweating. But I did manage to get a few scores. khryssun, are you still playing some of these games? I know you have a few score in Decathlon, but you haven't posted anything for a while, so I wasn't sure if you were still working on them or what... in any case, if you can beat any of the existing Team Canada scores, please post them and I'll remove Malc's or my score for you. Sorry about any mistakes in medal counts... believe me, I'll recount it at least a few times after midnight just to be completely sure. And yes, in the event of a tie in the number of medals, the team with the higher number of gold's will win... if they have the same number of golds, then the higher number of silvers will win... if they also have the same number of silvers, then I guess it follows that they will also have the same number of bronzes, so I'm not sure what will happen then... maybe add an extra sudden death thing or something, we'll see. Anyways, here's what I got: CG-Surfing: 10,700 WG-Ski Jump: 177.3 WG-Biathlon: 0:51.9 D-100m: 1029 points, 10.16s D-Long Jump: 1163 points, 10.17m D-Shot Put: 1012 points, 18.99m D-High Jump: 1025 points, 2.2m --Zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cybergoth Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Hi there! I'm running a 32Mb video card, 700Mhz AMD, 512Mb RAM, so when I make my PCAE 2.6 full screen, it runs at about 5 fps, but thanx for the "new info". From the PCAE manual: Very fast emulation due to the Pentium-optimized assembly implementation (And I was so happy 3 years ago to upgrade from 133 to 266 MHz... ) Greetings, Manuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Please remove the following scores for team XYPE.

Ouch! I haven't used PCAE for years now (never worked good for me, lost of bugs and emulation flaws) and I didn't knew that it was that bad. At least it should be very obvious for everybody when it is not running at full speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 ...it makes you wonder how many scores are real or cheaters. Not neccessarily cheaters, just maybe not knowing that the emulator is running at a too low speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
