This is my proposed points system:

actual  user  PointsPer  losePoints  Points
    3    4      2.85         2.85         2
    3    5      2.85         5.69         0
    8    9      1.58         1.58         3
   12   15      1.24         3.72         1
   20   21      0.91         0.91         4
   20   24      0.91         3.65         1
   80   85      0.4          1.98         3
   80   88      0.4          3.17         1

Being correct gets you 5 points, and entering 4 instead of 3 gets you 2 points, etc.

I feel that if you saw a crowd of people and guessed 88 instead of 80, you deserve at least 1 point, maybe 2.

Maybe I should be a little more generous, hey?

Sorry I don't quite understand the system, what is PointsPer?

MathsIsFun · 2008-12-11 12:10:11

Sorry ... PointsPer is "how many points you lose for how wrong you are", so if the answer is "20", and you answer "21" you lose 0.91 points (from the maximum of 5), but if you answer "24" you lose 3.65 points (4x0.91), etc.

Identity · 2008-12-11 13:17:09

Ah I see, well... I guess you can be as generous as you like, perhaps instead of reducing the error for high numbers you could increase the error for lower numbers. Up to you I guess

Try this new one: Estimate Area 10 to 99 at Mathopolis

Hrd to hack/cheat when it is designd inphp.Sometimes it is impossible to hack php games.(i tired hacking reaction math, just hacked the time but it didnt help...) Lol i got it to say 0.0## everytime but the score was not affected by it.

MathsIsFun · 2008-12-14 17:49:53

Good news.

The scoring may be hackable ... but then I will see suspicious activity in the logs

careless25 · 2008-12-15 08:12:11

My log is suspicious...My lowest score is less than 1 . I will see if i can hack score, for now i m 2 busy with my training so sometime in the near future.

I checked out the site, different from mathisfiun. You should have a Hall of Fame or something, Top 10 maybe?

MathsIsFun · 2008-12-21 14:01:42

Hall of Fame sounds like a good idea.

White_Wolf · 2008-12-22 06:57:55

Maybe a fastest time, or a most games played?

Have you been on http://www.notdoppler.com yet they update every thursday, acording to my GF's daughter. mabye you can talk to them and ask where they get there games from. Bloons is fun!

Hmm, the games are fun, they are good for improving mental arithmetic.

White_Wolf · 2008-12-23 04:52:47

I like Tactical Assassin 2, the origanal is to hard. Bloons defence tower 2 is amazing! I don't have anough points to buy the super monkey though...

careless25 · 2008-12-23 06:29:27

Bloons TD 3 i have beaten on easy and then continued to lvl 65 and lost.

Bloons TD i have beaten which is much easier than Bloons TD 3.

I like all TD games!!! have played most of the TD out on the net!

Thank you I will try it, not tried that one yet? If anyone is over 18 and completed tactical assassin (the origanal) could you help me?

careless25 · 2008-12-23 06:38:45

its about 6 months old now, i think.
But beat bloons TD 2 first it will help in Bloons TD 3.
Get a good strategy and stick to it.

Dots is amazing, i was on medium level, unlocked a blue vampire then i accidently pressed back
That took me 2 hours that did. I'm playing it now.

In Firefox 3, I got 5th place, but in my page it said that I got first. Maybe a remnant of careless' hacking, or maybe my browser.

careless25 · 2009-01-07 02:03:44

simron what i did shouldn't affect your score.

lightning · 2009-01-07 05:49:50

careless can you hack? cause there is a site that needs your help - you need animal crossing though

careless25 · 2009-01-07 10:19:53

What do you mean by hacking?(explain what i have to do)
and what site?

lightning · 2009-01-07 20:08:35

animal crossing forum - type that it - the axe could be turned into a wand to y'konw magic the tree dead, make new furni and stuff.
