Are you going to fix this or not? Is this something even possible fixing, or is it only affected by how each person's computer is running the game?

Does your chronometer run isolated from the rest of the game then? Even if you're literally lagging your arse off the screen, then the chronometer would be running properly just like every second/minute/hour should? Wow wtf...


So it appears that this TT thing is not 100% fair and accurate, and how we worked are arses off to beat someone's time and then realize that they had a 1 second advantage b/c they were running the game faster than we were? According to how you said that it depends on how fast someone is running the game, and how many frames per second he is receiving. DragShot, is there a way you can revert this to how the previous version worked? OH WAIT, we don't even know if the previous version's timer was working legit either !!!!!!!!

Well, now I can see why you got elected as the Biggest Idiot of 2013 :T .

I cannot get elected biggest idiot simply for sharing my concerns...that is just dumb, just like the people who voted me for it.

What I suggest we do is that we convert all the old times to the new timer. We know that the old framerate we did our times at was 20.5, and we know that the new frame rate is 21. That means, to convert an old time to a new time, you do: old time * 20.5 / 21.

Example: 57.69 (my gun run time) * 20.5 / 21 = 56.316 to 3 decimal places = 56.32 rounded to 2 decimal places.

No, you would deserve the prize this year because I was about to explain you the whole thing with apples for you to finally understand it Razz . To share what you think is the purpose of every forum, so that's just fine.

This is what we needed days ago to solve it all... or you might just see this a a opportunity to beat all your previous scores. Thank you Phyrexian, you're a genius Smile .

I didn't expect you to respond to this, unforunately you just can't stop i c Razz.
You did explain it initially right here:
Spoiler:

But since I didn't quite understand that and I wanted to throw an emphasis on the problem, I had the right to respond and share my thoughts about what you said because duh, this is a discussion forum which I am glad you got that right in your current response. What do you mean by "ABOUT to explain"? You explained it initially, but I didn't understand it quite well so I responded. So what you said, you were actually in the process of explaining it to me while I posted my response?? I don't quite understand what you mean by that. But I like how you're using that senseless award that I received for 2013 to blackmail me, just because I received it already won't mean I will get it again. But now I have a good reason why you voted for me in the awards for last year, but that was last year, who cares.

But seriously, you're only making this worse by talking about my GOD-for-saken award that I received as something that's not even related to TT's and our timer concern. My response was adequate and legit for someone who's not understanding something, and this is a forum so I had the right to respond and ask questions.
What I don't understand is why you're blackmailing me.

I meant that if you replied again asking for the true reason of the whole thing, stating something wrong or something, I would try to explain it all again from the start, in the simplest way I could. This because I thought I was not explaining myself properly in my two previous attempts.

1. I've never voted in any AIM Awards. Ever.
2. I never noticed the existence of such contest until this year, when I saw a 2013 prize in someone's signature (even when I could have seen it from the home page. I could win this year's prize for this Razz ).
3. Sorry if you felt a bit annoyed :\ . That wasn't my intention.

Umm, it's all well and good that we now have a formula to convert the times, but who's to say people won't lie about their times and say that they got it on the old system, thus getting a better time?

For example, my time of 33 seconds on G&M I got 2 days ago. Pretty sure that was after the framerate was fixed. However, I could've easily just lied and said I got that time weeks ago but never posted it, and simply say my real time is 32.21 (accounting for the framerate change).

I say we keep all the times like they are. If I've heard correctly, the framerate is fixed now, so there should be no problems after this.

It's impossible to use an old DS addon unless you turned off your internet connection and then ran the launcher so it couldn't update.
