Popular Post adam1984123 Posted March 8, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) Thanks to @readytofuky for the banner! 2018 RESULTS ARE IN THIS POST! Thanks to everyone who donated and participated. This competition has been developed due to the unforeseen closure of this thread: This competition will run for the same duration as its predecessor, commencing on March 1st (12am AEDT) and concluding at 11:59pm on the 30th of November 2018. To be eligible for entry, all you have to do is be from Australia and have had your PSN account for at least 2 years (Since Jan 1 2016) so we we can formulate your trophy multiplier score. Can all participants from the previous competition, please post their intention to compete in this one by Friday the 16th of March. Just keep in mind, scoring actually kicked off on March 1st. @MattyH16 @Ethan @spazza136 @simpgraus @Dessane @Demon--Prototype @AuzzieWingman @damage_6-9 @fisty123 @readytofuky @Gibbo_0113 @Feral @fantrig99 @Crestfallen @CjShai @fang7744 @Hampy64 Please also PM your backlog games ASAP. They can change from what you originally entered if you wish and I am happy to open the rules to any 10 games across any console as long as they were released on Playstation prior to Jan 1, 2018. Scoring: There are 3 ways to earn points in this competition: points awarded at the end of each month for earning trophies, the backlog challenge , and "fame and shame". Below is a further explanation on how points are awarded for each of these categories. ***Each player has a Trophy Multiplier based on their total trophy count for 2017 (Jan-Dec). You total points for EARNING TROPHIES ONLY will be multiplied by your multiplier to get your final score for the month. This has been calculated with the highest earner being off a multiplier of 1.0 and all other players have a multiplier boost as a percentage of their earnings vs. the top earning player for 2017. Based on current entrants, @cjshai will have a multiplier of 1.0 and @fmfab will have a multiplier of 4.188 due to him earning approximately 1 trophy for every 4 of the top player. This is simply worked by dividing @fmfab's total for 2017 by @cjshaitan's total for 2017. Earning Trophies - Each trophy that you earn throughout the month will have a value equivalent to the points the trophy is worth on the PSNP leader board (i.e. bronze = 15 points, silver = 30 points, gold = 90 points & platinum = 180 points). Scores will be calculated monthly and be multiplied by your multiplier to get your total score for the month. For example: In March @cjshaitan earns 1000 points. His final score for the earning trophies category is 1000 x 1 = 1000 points. @simpgraus earns 150 points. His final score is 180 x 6.547 = 1178. @simpgraus would be awarded 25 points and @cjshaitan would be awarded 20 points. Points will then be handed out monthly as follows: 1. 25 2. 20 3. 15 4. 12 5. 10 6. 9 7. 8 8. 7 9. 6 10. 5 11. 4 12. 3 13. 2 14. 1 15. 1 16+. 0 Backlog Challenge - each participant can nominate 10 games from their backlog that they plan to play throughout the season and earn points for completing them. Once you have named your 10 choices you won't be able to change them so pick carefully, choices must be submitted by Friday the 16th of March. To be eligible for this category games must: either not appear on your profile (having not been played yet) or have a completion of 10% or less if it already appears on your profile, the game must have been released prior to 1st of January 2018 and the game must have a platinum trophy (it can be a retail or digital release). Each backlog game will be worth a maximum of 100 points! The final points awarded for each game are calculated based upon rarity of the platinum trophy at the time the backlog was submitted, the formula being used for calculations is 100 x (1 - rarity). Rarity will be rounded to a single decimal place and points will be rounded to the nearest .5 point. Therefore, a platinum has a 12.94% rarity will earn a total of 87.1 points (100 x 0.871 - then rounded). Backlog points are then added together (assuming you finish multiple backlog games in a month, if you don't no adding is required!) Points will awarded in the same fashion as earning trophies, from highest score to lowest: 1. 25 2. 20 3. 15 4. 12 5. 10 6. 9 7. 8 8. 7 9. 6 10. 5 11. 4 12. 3 13. 2 14. 1 15. 1 16+. 0 Fame and Shame - each month the top 5 players who earns the rarest platinum will earn "fame" along with 25, 20, 15, 10, & 5 points (you can't stack points if you have multiple positions in the top 5, 1 per player per month). And the single player who earns the most common platinum trophy will earn "shame" along with a deduction of 5 points. Points from all 3 categories are then added together to get your final score for the month, with a max score of 75 possible. Below is the trophy multiplier for all to see what everyone will be playing off. PRIZES @fisty123, @damage_6-9 & @Gibbo_0113 have kindly offered to donate to the prize pool I was already going to fund - thanks guys!. We also have been able to source an anonymous donor who will be funding a lucky dip prize at the end of the competition. The payout now looks like: 1st: $130 PSN card 2nd: $70 PSN card 3rd: $30 PSN card LUCKY DIP - Anyone finishes outside the top 3 will be in the 'lucky dip' to be drawn by my daughter at the conclusion of the competition for $80 worth of PSN cards. LUCKY DIP BOTTOM 10 ONLY - Damage has donated a further $10 x 9 for a lucky dip every month! $90 in total! FIRST TO COMPLETE THEY BACKLOG - Gibbo will donate $50 in PSN cards to the winner! That is now a prize pool of $450 worth of PSN cards! And nearly a 1 in 5 chance of winning! So whether you want to go hard or just have some fun, everyone has the chance to win some cash. And with the multiplier system, everyone even has a chance to win the whole thing. Looking forward to some good banter and some fun.

But the backlist can be games up to Ist Jan 2018 now. So you could list all stacks of Persona 5 and already have over half a list ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drag-On-Detritus Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) I would like to participate. Looking at my own last years numbers is kind of WTF, but I was doing that journey to 100 platinums thing. Feels like that happened a lot longer ago. Oh well still a ton of games to try out so looking forward to seeing what happens. Edited March 8, 2018 by readytofuky 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrestfallenAU Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I'm in. Thanks for keeping the scoring going from March 1st instead of resetting it to April. I see you've also removed the completion bonuses, now my profile is a filthy 91% for nothing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AffectatiousDonk Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) Looking forward to it, looks like a great scoring system. Seems like a good vibe all around should be fun, although I must say I haven't seen so many handicaps since the Paralympic. I didn't realise there were so many trophy challenged gamers in Australia.

Given your track record I am tempted to start taking odds on when you will pull out of the comp with the favourite being after 1 month and second favourite being before a month. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam1984123 Posted March 8, 2018 Author Share Posted March 8, 2018 Thanks to all that have joined so far, and submitted their backlogs. I have added everything accordingly. I would like to create a transparent enviornment where everyone can see each others backlog and check out what they will be playing. I would encourage you to hit each other up if you are playing the same stuff to work on the games together - it's more fun that way! I have created this link which shows what I am working on. The backlog TAB has all the backlog games that people have submitted so far, and their plat rarity at the time it was added to the backlog. The backlog games are linked to the site so you can view in full. Check it out. https://drive.google.com/file/d/13Z1oZG3Rz_sBuLFiHWYUJSSS_NvnN1vH/view?usp=sharing Nitro has been added and multiplier calculated. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
