litle of topic here: On xitooners picture I can see myself on #79 as janKovak, however I changed my name very long time ago to CZE-Barton, till that change I can see myself on my phone as CZE-Barton, however it seems this change doesnt take affect everywhee or at the side of another users?

I think your friends see you with your original name, Everyone else see you with the new name. Are you and Xitooner friends in game?

On iOS? Interesting. So it seems at least some people get points from Razor Dunes (either partial or full points) on both iOS and Android.

Yes, iOS. I know it was the same for mashpotato.

You are right!
I see janKovak in my LB friends list, and CZE-Barton in my generic LBs.
I also see janKovak in my Bunker showdown friends list, but CZE-Barton in the showdown Legends list (not there yet, but I know you will be)
Lastly... janKovak in my gift list and CZE-Barton in my uplay friends list (uplay search wont find janKovak, but does find CZE-Barton)

So its an "in-game friends" thing...(uplay not really being "in-game")

The exponential figure in this case is just e to the power of x, and x: ((Silver medal time - Rider time) / (Gap between Silver and Platinum)) and you can pretty much do this on any calculator. And on a calculator it's an e with a tiny x floating next to it.

And every fault does matter, since if you do have a silver medal time, that is worth 250,000+ points but only if it's faultless, take that into consideration for every run, but for every fault you make is 100,000 points taken off, so you can be in the Silver medal zone and have the requirements for a Silver medal but still not receive any points due to the excessive amount of faults you might have.

Hey it turns out i can type it directly into google, e^-1.714285 which equals like you said 0.18 then multiply by 250,000. Ok so now i know how to do that. But something else is confusing now. The faults.

I´m looking at WC, i have a 30s run with 2 faults, minimum gold time is 32s 2-fault and minimum plat is 28s 0-fault. To figure out my score i take 500k for the gold + 1/2(250k) for the halfway between gold and plat, and then subtract the 200k for the 2 faults, totalling 425k final score. The Ultimate tab however is showing 619k. So since Gold allows for 2 faults i figured you don´t subtract the 200k in the end unless you go over 2 faults. Following that reasoning you can do a 28s 2-fault run and get 750k, or a 28s 0-fault run for the same 750k. I´m also assuming the score plateaus at 750k for 2 faults, even if you did a 27s 2 fault run, you´d remain with 750k points.

Still no update here.... still waiting.

I believe the first name you use to create the Uplay account is permanent and can´t be changed. You can still go into Uplay and change what they call your "username", and then what you get is what you´re seeing, in some places you appear with your new username, in others with your permanent Uplay name.

Well, each fault takes 100K off the score you get, always. I think the issue here is (sort-of) with dutschers web page. The value he is showing is the Ultimate Time score for 0-faults. If he showing 619K, then he didnt remove the 200K from your two faults. If he had... then he would have been showing 419K (your time must not be EXACTLY 30) where you were expecting around 425K...

The question is... was dutscher trying to show the score you actually got.. or the best score you could get for your time? That Ultimate column is a little ambiguous right now....

Nice find! I didnt know it could do that. Turns out, you can take google ever farther than that; the following does ALL the math for you; you just need to plug in the numbers:

(e^((40-70)/17.5)*250000
gives 45023.078037

(you could subtract your fault costs as well if you had had any... a negative number means you would get 0 points)

Yes thanks, i see it now, it does look like the Ultimate tab ignores faults. It was throwing me off and i wasn´t sure anymore if your Zero Fault "allowed" for faults with no penalty. Now i know my score on MM is not 300k+, it´s -200 wait maybe i should make this face

And still no update available.

[Chemical-TBR]

As proof of concept... or just for plain ole having fun testing stuff... i´ve tweaked the equation and settled on 189 seconds.

(e^((40-189)/17.5)*250000 = 50.145... So by xitooners and googles calculations i should get 50 points.

Took screenshot of my score, did the run, took another screenshot of my score.





In Xitooner we trust.

And STILL no update...

[hikasrams]

The update is currently available only on iOS. Android update should be out soon, we will keep you posted.

Nice to know
There wouldn't have been misunderstanding if a popup about update would have been shown only for a platform it was released.

STILL NO UPDATE.....WHAT'S GOING ON !?!?
