I'm thinking of updating Puzzler scoring to be like Relics so that the score matter in Race. It'd mean not completing all 3 puzzles is a 0. Any thoughts on that?
I think we should all be given the same puzzles and boards in games. Like it’s frustrating as hell that you get a really hard puzzle and someone else gets 3 really easy ones it seems unfair
I feel like 90% of the time everyone completes all the puzzles and it's just down to speed. But on the rare occasions you don't complete them all, your only hope is someone did worse, so I feel like it should stay as is, just because the person who completed 2 and got stuck on the third deserves a higher score than the person who got stuck on the second or didn't complete any.
Cherry That's totally correct, that's why it is how it is right now, but the impact it has on race is a bit unfavourable atm. I think it's fine if some comps are transport comps, but Puzzler scores almost don't matter in race atm as long as you score average
JTee the math just doesn't work out for it. The reason it's 200 each is to give room for the time bonus tiebreaker. The lowest we could go without breaking that would be 120 per puzzle. It would improve things for sure but it still would be a transport comp.

I like the way the puzzler is scored myself tbh Dont touch it.
in saying this, you should host a puzzler race or arena right now

Venom This has been suggested for every comp since the start of the site, and the issue has always been people would tell each other their answers
Sin please dont change that. I love yelling out my codebreaker answer making no difference at all.

yes, like 100 for all 3, 80 for all 2, 60 for 1. Gives teams a shot still if their partner nukes

Sure
