I've been thinking about my previous post on no more than 15% for the 1st place bonus (or other score penalty).(posted 9682 days ago)I still didn't like any penalty - after all the scores are what they are. End of story. If someone gets 98% of your score why shouldn't they get 98 points. This is especially true of the bowling games. Why should someone get more points for the same score just because they were the first to upload a perfect 300 game?
My vote is as per TGK's above:
Top score = 100 points. All other scores = percentage of top score.
While it's true this will encourage quantity if someone puts in a crap score for a game, then someone else can take the points they earn down to size by simply uploading a new recording. I think the fact that every point extra you can get on games where you are currently 2nd will actually encourage you to play games that you may not be able to beat the top score on now, but at least you're getting rewarded for every improvement you make. I think competition will improve with this method.
If someone wants to spend the time uploading lots of recordings then they should be rewarded. We all have the same opportunity for uploading tons of recordings and who knows we may find games we actually like and can get better at.
Now, time to try doing some more battling with BIL - who seems to like taking away my Galaxian scores...... ;-))
