Intellivision HSC Season 13 - Game 12 - Frog Bog


Recommended Posts

Looks like the same thing also happened in Auto Racing, so never mind. Guess that's just how we're scoring this contest. It's odd in that it would be the same as handing out a bronze medal to 4th  place in the Olympics when there was a tie for the gold.

Looks like an error on Pitfall as well. Okay, we'll defer to @JacobZu7zu7 for that one. Usually 3rd place would get 3rd place points, etc, regardless of what happened with the spots above. 

Ok I will update all the tie errors this season and put together an adjusted points total. I will fix it dude..... ??

Yeah tied scores just means more points going around... still the usual 10 point skip to +9, but no point drops for any tied scores.

 

 

 

 

If we didn't have point tie security.... could cause something like this...

Fake Frog scores example;

 

1. 520 13

2. 520 13

3. 520 13

4. 520 13

5. 520 13

6. 510 +7 big 5 point loss for a good score.

I would actually support that scenario, but I understand the reasoning and am fine, I've just never seen 2nd place points awarded for a 6th place finish.  In the spirit of being as inclusive as possible, I am totally fine with handling it as you were.  And I made poor @Rickster8 spend all that time undoing what was intentional.  ?

Okay I will undo what was done this morning. So I am understanding all was correct beforehand even Frog Bog?
