Fetch, is there a tie-break system for how the individual race distance scores are calculated if the "time" is the same, as I think I may have spotted a bug?

As an example, if you look at Division 6 my current 5k time is 18:46 and abdou's time is 18:44, which translates into 18 and 19 points respectively (fine so far). However, as neither of us have a current mile time, our 5k times have both been interpolated to 6:02, but I currently have 17 points for the mile (6:02.4) and abdou has 16 (6:01.8)!

I guess I need to start including parkruns in my race portfolio - I've always added them as training. What if I volunteer :-)

Nelly - I've updated the scoring, so that if you get the same time (to the nearest second) you'll get the same number of points. So now you both have 17, and the next-highest player has 15 points.

Are the league tables dynamic? i.e. I got a new 10k PB last night and put the time in my portfolio, this seems to be reflected everywhere on the site except UTMOST.

If not, which score determines whether or not someone moves league, that shown on the table? or an updated score for any new PBs?

Mine is updated from yesterday either. I'm guessing it's maybe a once a week update.

My bad - it should have been doing that. Give it another go, and it should show you your updated times.

Brilliant! Thanks Fetch. We need a Fetch in our IT dept!

Didn't improve my position though, it appears everyone above me are improving their times too!

Stu, the game is based upon your best five race scores that count towards your total score. The 6 points you get for your improved 10k time is still only your 6th best race score and therefore doesn't count towards your total score/ranking.

Oh, I hadn't noticed that! I assumed it was all the distances listed. Thanks.

About This Thread

Maintained by fetcheveryone
Start in the bottom division, and compete over seven different distances against your rivals for weekly promotion!

How It Works
1) The game takes your best times from training and racing over the last 12 months.

2) If you've got the fastest 5k in your division, you get 20 points. If you're second fastest, you get 19 points, etc.

3) Your FIVE best scores are used to calculate your total. So if your scores at each distance are 20,20,20,20,20,10,5 the lowest two are discarded, and your total points would be 100.

4) Promotion and relegation happen every Monday at midday.
