Weekly Competition 2018-04

Hmm, that's not correct. You ought to have gotten 42 points also at the comp site (with the
current rules). On the other hand I think that solve was worth 114 points or more, as you can
get more than that for doing 2x2 in a couple of seconds.

We are looking at some new rules to make the different events more equal, while keeping
the bonus for doing also events that takes more than a minute for a whole average.

114 is what I calculate:
  1. 44/46 (57:30) the super cuber = 42 points
  2. 38/40 (57:06) kamilprzyb = 36 points
  3. 39/42 (58:01) sigalig =36 points
42 + 36 + 36 = 114

Oh, what a coincidence - you're right!
Mats and I were noticing from some output that I had generated that I was actually calculating 114 points for the super cuber alone - that's what he would get for his solve if we were counting 2 points for each cube, and I had introduced a bug in that code that was allowing that to be counted. But that wasn't visible to anyone but me and Mats yet, and I didn't realize it. It's quite a coincidence that his personal score for the event with the 2 points per cube improperly added equaled the proper score for the whole podium.

So I guess move along - nothing to see here. :-)

I do hope to add the ability to look at scores for past weeks soon; I'm trying to get the bugs out of it first. :-)
