Points added, currently can earn only through first track completes

Will points be related to top times at all? I feel like a tier system should be implemented. Like so-and-so many points per one time, more for a faster time.

 

i have 582 something points i thnk wat about you islamuslim and i cant wait for the release of the campaign

 

662... Need me a store. Gotta get some hats

 

yay i reached 600

 

i reached 600 in my 300th track

 

i reached 638 on 319

 

Hi Eric, can I add something here? Something like a suggestion or an idea you might like.
What I was thinking about was points you earn depend on the number of plays on a track, and the scoring system will be a little bit more unique, such that, for example, if the number of plays on a track is 200, then the player who got first gets 200 points, while the person who got nth place earns [number of plays - (position on the leaderboard - n)]. And as more and more players are continually playing tracks, the number of plays on that track will increase. This is where it gets interesting: the points you earned previously will also increase along with the number of plays on that track, which means your points will be ever-changing.
(Quick question: does number of plays mean the number of players who completed a track or the number of players who landed on a track regardless whether the track was completed at all?)
However, you will not lose points, and every time you log in you can view how many points you have earned since your last log in. Also, if multiple players had their times tied they will each be awarded equal points, with their positions listed in the following diagram.

I think this is a good idea and will keep players thinking they have a chance of beating other players by setting the best time they can instead of keep completing tracks like the current point scoring system.

 

I can agree on the above.

But if there were to be a Tier based point system how will be each individual tracks be assessed? There may be tens of thousands of tracks out there with variable lengths (and that includes tracks that have not yet completed and tracks that are un-completable) but how can you decide in which time range you have to complete the track for each specific track? I was think about replacing Tier 1, 2 and 3 with top 3, middle 4 and bottom 3 positions in the leaderboards.

And if you have completed that track and have set a score, someone beats your score, you can get additional points if you beat your score once again provided you beat that someone's score as well (points gained depends on the number of positions gained). The only tricky bit is when you beat your own previous score and you end up tying with player(s) (meaning you did beat your own score but not other players), you will not gain additional points.

 

yay i reached 800 points

 

will these tiers be different depending on track difficulty and length?

 

lolzzz I had ezactly 500 points when you installed this system.

 

i have 1400 points

 

How about points rewarded for contributing a track? I assume this would keep the community revolving around the idea of "creation". You could issue points out for each 10 thumbs up, every 25, 50, so on

 

Well thank you then. That sure is coming along nicely.

 

Eric will you have that track creator pause issue solved soon? I know, players are too greedy. I"m Sorry.

 

Nice to see you again, btw.

What issue?
(Sorry for not knowing.)
