I could not help myself and have done a thing.

 

Appreciate that, friend!

 

I'll update the list this Sunday as it will most likely double at the rate it's going. I'll aim to have the front page looking a bit better too, along with a shiny new leaderboard!

My one concern with this scoring method is, if I'm interpreting it right, you get one extra point for every ultra rare platinum, correct? If so, we run into the same problem as with the regular leaderboards - ultra rares typically take hundreds of hours to complete, while even at the 40-50% mark you can find an abundance of games that take only a day or two. So the path to recognition is easy games, just like on the regular leaderboard, with the only difference being that you can't spam quite as effectively.

 

For what it's worth (nothing), I agree with this entirely and, if I were organizing this "event?", I would modify it a little to make UR plats worth 5 or something. Imo they need to have heavier weight.

 

But alas, I am not running this and will enjoy the ride.

I know that this will be tweaked with time but I think that the "platinums" that should count are only the ones under 50% rarity too (or 75% idk), ezpz plats shouldn't count either in any way...

Hey, just wanted to drop in and say, that I think what you're setting up here is a cool idea - and congratulate you on it! 

 

It's, frankly, a more reasonable set up than has generally been suggested in most of the bi-monthly "rarity leaderboard request" rallies that have been going on for years 

It's an elegant and simple set up, it's voluntary, so no one is being retroactively signed up against their will to a competition they had no interest in being a part of when they joined the site, and importantly, it doesn't actually invalidate or marginalise playing good-but-common games - just encourages a healthy trophy diet, without too much gorging on the fast food!

 

It is a little bit of a shame that non-plat games aren't accounted for, as there are some great ones out there, but generally, this is a really good, well thought out idea.

 I imagine you are setting yourself up for some serious work, as I suspect there will be a lot of subscribers! 

 

I won't join in myself, as I've been a vocal opponent of alt leaderboards on the site, and while this one is smart and well construct in my estimation, I suspect my joining would be fodder for accusations of hypocrisy, (nuance not exactly being the internet's forte! )...

 

...but in all seriousness, this is a cool concept, and hope it does well!

 

That's very kind of you, and I fully agree regarding the inclusion of 100% games. I'm sure the majority here feel the same, so I'm going to make a poll on how they should be valued. 

 

I have to say, it's a shame you're not joining for the reason you mentioned. I hope you reconsider.

Hey, if that's what the community wants I'd be happy to change their value. I'll add this to the poll I mentioned above, giving them a rating between 1 and 5 to see everyone's preference.

If only we could get one on the actual website.

PSN: Sepheroithisgod
Average: 37.61%
Platinums: 408
UR Plats: 66

Edit: I think UR plats should give more value. 5 or 10 points per UR plat would probably be ideal.

Are you going to allow participation from people who are off of the main leaderboard?

[x7251]

I like this idea, but I don't see how it is possible to manually check everyones stats every so often. If hundreds of people join this leaderboard, it is going to be extremely time consuming to update statistics if hundreds of people join this leaderboard.

PSNPMember1 has 100 Platinums (10 of those being Ultra Rare Platinums) = 110 Points Very, very simple...

 

 

So if I have 10,000 plats and 0 ultra rare, I can still win?  I would think you would want the scoring to reflect rarity rather than quantity.  You could only count ultra rare for one.  Or you could do % of URP (URP/P).  Or it could be something wild, like # of P / rarity%.  E.g. 18P/.3611 (my rarity).  Then you get a higher score from lower % and more URP.  Just a couple ideas, but it would be cool if there was a way to have it be where even the little guys can make a presence.  Another possibility, URP% / rarity%, e.g. my rarity is .3611, my URP% is .183, so .183/.3611.  Both higher URP% and lower rarity% are beneficial.

 

A simply way to add 100%s is just count the completion to the mix.  E.g. I have Vessel at 100% and it is 2.66%, an UR.  So a completed game has the same weight as a plat.  You could say only nonplat games count, or include dlc 100%s too (so games with the green % under the blue %).  E.g. Worms Battlegrounds is UR 0.44%.  That creates a lot more work to verify everyone, but it is doable.

 

Since that is probably not going to get added to this event, it could be another event, a UR 100% leaderboard.

This is great!
 

I have two autopop platinums so won’t join in as those are probably cheating, or at least unfair to the “legit” profiles on any leaderboard. 
 

From a community side however, it’s really interesting to see a list of active members on the forum and how they approach “the hunt” like this. Good job both!

Don't worry, hundreds won't join, on the other threads asking for a rarity leaderboard I have been said that this is only wanted for 2 or 3 elitist jerks that want to shame other users...

[pinkrobot_pb]

I updated the script to include sorting on the table headers.

 

I also added everyone that has signed up since the first version I made this morning. That's 74 people now so far. Let me know if I missed someone of course.
