Unofficial "Hall of Wizards"
Hello dear Zaccaria Wizards,

Here you can find some webpages in order to add a complementary scoreboard for Zaccaria Pinball on Steam.

https://zp.tu-es-un-bon-developpeur.fr

Still in beta test (site can be removed for some minutes sometimes).

Thanks to report bug, spelling mistakes, etc.
Any suggestion or feedback are welcome too.

added to a guide here : https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2104531425

Impressive Cynyx! Looks great.

Maybe you can make this a Steam guide so people can always find it back?

Less impressive than your scores imo :P

Thx for feedback. Post edited with a Steam guide.

Wow, it's fantastic! And the best that it is cheater-free!

Thanks for feedback.

Cheaters.
It's one of the reason I've made these new scoring system. They have their special page here[zp.tu-es-un-bon-developpeur.fr] ...

The process for detecting them is automated with few rules and before calculating ranks and scores.

At this moment, perhaps some mistakes still here (false positive and/or positive not detected). Perhaps, some adjustments are needed. Example : for achievements, some players are cheaters, without any doubt.- I think it's not possible to trigger 4000 achievements in 1 second), but perharps some players with 20 or even 30 are leggit.

Concerning competitive aspect, the second reason I have made that, we are in same situation : we really need to increase our arcade scores :P

Hi, thanks for your job, that's fantastic. I made a suggestion to Cynyx and I think it's a good idea.

I think the distribution of points for "Hall of Wizards" is not adequate: why a first place should have same points as a 5th place, why a 51st place should have same points as a 100th place, etc.
So Cynyx made a change with a different amount of points gained for each position.

So tiers can be changed from:

1-5 = 2000
6-10 = 1000
11-25 = 500
26-50 = 250
51-100 = 100

To:

1 = 3000
2-5 = 2000
6-10 = 1000
11-20 = 500
21-30 = 400
31-40 = 300
41-50 = 200
51-70 = 100
71-100 = 50

I think Wizards Score will be more real and truthful, what do you think? Also a first place is an absolute world record and must be awarded more than second and others, not much more but still more.

New tiers applied will give this new ranking:

Hi again, what do you think it's better for scoring:

1 = 3000
2-5 = 2000
6-10 = 1000
11-20 = 500
21-30 = 400
31-40 = 300
41-50 = 200
51-70 = 100
71-100 = 50

or:

1 = 3000
2-5 = 2000
6-10 = 1000
11-20 = 500
21-30 = 400
31-40 = 300
41-50 = 200
51-60 = 100
61-70 = 50
71-80 = 30
81-90 = 20
91-100 = 10

Please, give your opinion, thanks.

I would exclude the achievements from the ranking, since it so easy to bypass.

ok, but which tiers do you prefer?
Mart Jun 2, 2020 @ 10:16am 
Second one, the more detailed the better.
A-Jey Jun 3, 2020 @ 2:07pm 
No need to exclude the achievements as he implemented a cheat-detection algorythm ;-)
Hafam_Hock Jun 4, 2020 @ 3:30am 
A-Jey, which tiers do u prefer?
A-Jey Jun 5, 2020 @ 9:36am 
Tier 2 looks ok for me.

But maybe more detailed with top 10 also...

1 = 3000
2 = 2500
3 = 2250
4 = 2000
5 = 1750
6 = 1500
7 = 1300
8 = 1100
9 = 900
10 = 700

8 = 1100
9 = 900
10 = 700

yea, I think this is a better solution. So the defintive tiers should be:

1 = 3000
2 = 2500
3 = 2250
4 = 2000
5 = 1750
6 = 1500
7 = 1300
8 = 1100
9 = 900
10 = 700
11-15 = 600
16-20 = 500
21-30 = 400
31-40 = 300
41-50 = 200
51-60 = 100
61-70 = 50
71-80 = 30
81-90 = 20
91-100 = 10

Hello, Cynyx! Something is wrong with the leaderboard, maybe some database error. Can you fix it?
