This basically works like the SSX3 player rankings. You post your best times and add them up to figure in an overall scoreboard.

Since the SSX On Tour events system is so stupid and confusing, only the racing events that cover 1 and 2 tracks will be included (at least as of now). The events that consist of 3 or more tracks are so boring and dull that I don't think anyone plays those seriously. The single-track and dual-track times will be added up separately for its own categories, and totalled for an overall category.

I'm not including freestyle as of yet because I don't think there's anyone who has played all of those tracks, and I don't feel like coming up with a working system. Differing time limits makes it harder than with racing. If anyone can come up with a working system for freestyle, I'll include it.

In case anyone has trouble figuring out what the track initialisms stand for, here's a list:

BTS = Between the Sheets
HD = Hot Dam
OTR = On The Rocks
MTG = Mind The Gap
Comp = Compilation
SOB = Son Of A Bitch
WK = White Knuckles
HB = Half-Banked
HL = Higher Learning
WTF = Wild Tree Fun
B&E = B & E
RK = Roadkill
LC = Last Call
B2B = Back-2-Back
WR = World Record


Here are all the events that will be covered in the player rankings:

Single-track events:
[font=courier,monospace]BTS -- LC Remix heat 2
HB --- HB Double
Comp - LC Remix heat 4
OTR -- OTR Remix heat 1 / LC Remix heat 3
SOB -- OTR Remix heat 4
WK --- WK Remix heat 1
HL --- HL Double / OTR Remix heat 3 / WK Remix heat 4
RK --- OTR Remix heat 2 / WK Remix heat 2
LC --- LC Remix heat 1 / WK Remix heat 3[/font]

Dual-track events:
[font=courier,monospace]BTS: B2B / Double ------ BTS-MTG
MTG: B2B --------------- MTG-HB
OTR: Double ------------ OTR-WK
SOB: B2B --------------- SOB-HL
WK: BoxSet single heat - WK-HL
HL: B2B ---------------- HL-RK
B&E: Double ------------ B&E-LC
WTF: Double ------------ WTF-B&E
RK: BoxSet single heat - RK-LC[/font]


If you're not sure on how to add up your times, here's a tutorial. If you're too lazy, I'll do it for you. :heh

Note that when playing a Remix or BoxSet race, you must calculate your achieved time by subtracting the accumulated time from the previous heats. The time you see when crossing the finish line does not always correspond to your real achieved time, as anything from 0 to 3 hundredths are added.

Sadly, there is no single-track event for MTG, WTF, and B&E, so those three are only in dual-track events. HD doesn't have any single or dual, so it's out.

Post your times for the above events to figure in the rankings. You must post a time for all events in a particular category--if you don't, a time of 2:30.00 (single) or 5:00.00 (dual) will be assumed for each of the missing events. If you, for any reason, don't know or don't post the exact hundredths of seconds of a time, .99 will be assumed. If you have any questions or suggestions, post them here as well.

Rankings will be updated regularly in the first (this) post. Below are the rankings as of: 2006-04-04

Then add the all the seconds and then add the tenths of a sec to get a total of seconds. And then i divide the total seconds by 60. So if what i'm doing is wrong then my total calculations for my times will be wrong.


yea, i think ur doing it right except ur total time for single tracks is 10.8018...min
u have to multiply the .8018 by 60 to get 10 min and 48.11 seconds so ur time is 10:48.11

the same applies for the other times, just multiply the decimals by 60 to get whatever seconds

hope this helps :)

BTW, very nice times IceXtreme :cheers

Thu Dec 08, 2005 9:03 pm

thanks a lot eric :china

Fri Dec 09, 2005 12:43 am

Rankings updated!

Ice, check your racing total. :)

Fri Dec 09, 2005 5:02 am

Wow, mad props to RE for putting work into this and making it so user friendly. :heh

Fri Dec 09, 2005 5:12 am

here are my scores used select tricks

Single Tracks:
BTS -- 1:26.33
HB --- 1:24.87
Comp - 1:16.23
OTR -- 1:38.48
SOB -- 1:21.20
WK --- 1:04.65
HL --- 1:07. 65
RK --- 1:30.44
LC --- 1:04.31
Total - 12:04.16

sorry these scores are single track only becouse i did not try dual tracks yet :china
i'll try dual tracks and post these scores soon :)

Fri Dec 09, 2005 2:19 pm

Great work RE, this must take alot of time to put together. I will post my times when i done some more work on some of those events

I don't want to mess up all your hard work but how come WTF B2B was not included as it only WTF - RK.

Fri Dec 09, 2005 2:54 pm

Seems like many people have trouble adding up their times, so here's a tutorial. I'll use my single-track times as an example.

First add up the entities separately:

BTS -- 1:27.30
HB --- 1:24.26
Comp - 1:15.48
OTR -- 1:38.70
SOB -- 1:23.44
WK --- 1:04.36
HL --- 1:06.85
RK --- 1:33.75
LC --- 1:03.9x (.99 is assumed)
total- 9:173.513

The '13' of the '513' will be the remaining hundredths of second. Add the '5' to the seconds:

9:178.13

Since the seconds are base 60 instead of base 100, we divide '178' by 60.

178 / 60 = 2.9666...

Take the integer ('2') and add it to the minutes. Take the decimals (0.9666...) and multiply them by 60.

0.9666... * 60 = 58

Final time: 11:58.13

You can use Windows calculator (Start -> Run -> calc.exe) to add up the seconds and hundredths easily. You can also use the modulus (remainder) function to get the seconds:

178 mod 60 = 58

WTF B2B was not included because I wanted to keep it to 1 dual-track event for each track. And between WTF Double and B2B, Double is the most played. Also because that way there's 9 events for each single and dual.


Rankings updated.

Hopefully somebody else will help take the idea further, but for freestyle we can have individual tracks for all the tracks in the RK Remix which includes:
Roadkill
Hot Dam
Between the Sheets
Last Call


And there are also:
White Knuckles Double SS (Single Track)
Son of a Birch Boxset SS (Single Track, one heat score)
On the Rocks Double SS (Single Track).


And maybe include for total freestyle:
Between the Sheets B2B Pipe
Compilation B2B Pipe


The only problem with this system is that it dumps B&E, Last Call, Higher Learning, Mind the Gap, and Half Banked. So hopefully somebody can expand on this :).

Mon Dec 12, 2005 6:44 pm

That's a good idea Tim, but as you said it sucks that B&E, HL, MTG and HB would have to be excluded.

I think it would be better to use Boxset single heat for pipes, because they are shorter than B2B. Reasons: 1) score potential is much higher on pipes than on slopestyles; 2) who doesn't get a sore left thumb after 2 minutes on Compilation? :heh

What do you all think? eviltim, royank, MonsterTricky, whoever else plays freestyle. Use those 7 slopestyle courses for freestyle ranking? Boxset single, B2B, or no pipes at all?

Wed Dec 14, 2005 8:42 pm

I've made some new race times..

Single Tracks:
BTS -- 1:25.96

SOB -- 1:19.30

Sat Dec 17, 2005 4:37 pm

Here are my krappy times:

Single Tracks:

BTS--- 1:29.82
HB--- 1:24.50
Comp--- 1:22.23
OTR--- 1:42.23
SOB--- 1:28.92

HL--- 1:08.93
RK--- 1:37.02
LC--- 1:07.81
Total--- [glow=blue]12:26.67[/glow]

I definitely need to get my Compilation, SOaB, and Roadkill times down and improve my total to at least sub 12:10

Sat Dec 17, 2005 8:38 pm

Those are not crappy times Eric! HB and WK are especially good.

Rankings updated. Added a HoF.

A few of them times look too good to be true....anyways, really nice work, Honestly i'm in shock!

Fri Dec 30, 2005 11:52 am

Have vids of all of 'em. The only damn course that's eluding me is LC. I can get 1:04.1 so easily, but 1:03 is insane. When I first hit 1:03, I was using skis; that could mean something.

Fri Dec 30, 2005 2:34 pm

Dude, RE them are some fucking good times man. The one that stands out at me most is WK. 1:01 is insane. I have 1:04.

I wil edit this post tonight with my times.

Fri Dec 30, 2005 3:09 pm

I used a completely different line for that 1:01. I can hit 1:00 with it, possibly even sub-1:00. With the old line I have 1:03.68.

Fri Dec 30, 2005 3:25 pm

So the line is totally different from NOB's? Ok, so... have you found like a WH or something? Because I just don't see a 1:00 there.

If you wouldn't mind, could you post a rough vid of your line?

Fri Dec 30, 2005 3:34 pm

No, not a wormhole, just a different beginning and a new select trick. There are no wormholes in this game!

Fri Dec 30, 2005 3:38 pm

Ok, fair enough, I'll have to search then. Thanks for the challenge.
