![]() The advantage of the 900 one is that if a bunch of people AAA a song then not AAAing doesn't hurt you that much.
As noname pointed out, the advantage of the 729 one is that it's more fair to the top people. That is, if you AAA and then someone else does, the people you did better than are as far from you as they should be. Having another person tie your score only improves THEIR score, not everyone's, so it doesn't hurt you as much. (I prefer the 729.)

Shouldn't this type of thing be determined before the tournament starts? I mean, if you wait till the tournament ends, people will try to use this to maximize credit payouts. I thought you decided to use all three scoring methods? The only question is whether to use the 900/729 scoring method.

I already know how I would have done it with regards to the Tournament Points (I've been calculating them roughly as we go)- I was using the 1000/1000/1000/900 system. But qqwref has brought up an interesting alternative and I am liking the arguments so far for the 1000/1000/1000/729 method. I'll say right now the difference between the systems is pretty minor in end results because of how few ties there were in this tournament. But the principle of the thing is still absolutely worth discussing. Unlike some other tournament hosts *cough* I'm not ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED the way I do things is the best way. If people bring up convincing arguments for something to change, I will consider it. I won't change something specifically to help anyone get more credits or whatever, that would be absurd. But if the argument they present is reasonable and fair, then it's only reasonable and fair on my end to give their ideas a chance to be said. Having a dialogue with your tournament participants is a good thing.

![]() Wow, I really dislike nerves.
Near-AAA first stream, freak out from nerves and butcher the second stream. AAA the middle and second stream, freak out from nerves of possibly making up for the first butcher and shaky hands good-attack the last stream. |

See this is a good example of the kind of argument I don't consider :P
If you're talking about whether or not everyone will get credits, everyone who submitted on time for all rounds will definitely get credits, yes. Those who submitted for all rounds but needed extensions / late scores will also all get credits, but probably less. Holy crap that consistency 0_o

![]() don't forget that people that aren't playing for prizes shouldn't be counted in tourney points, because that'll have a big effect =o
