True Trim Hiscores
Quick find code: 259-260-620-65860778
I have some hopefully 'kind of' constructive criticism and also some questions. But before I start I want to be clear that the last thing I wish to do is discourage you. I love a good hiscores and I like different kinds of hiscores
Also, very damn impressive what you have achieved!
I like a good hiscores because I like a good race. The closer the race the better as far as I'm concerned. So here's the thing, I can't help but feel the race was won before you made this. But maybe I'm wrong.
Anyway here's my questions (please forgive me if I come across as pedantic)
Assuming you keep up reqs and others also reach 100%, can they ever pass you? If so how? I ask this because ranks can work a number of ways. Ranks can be locked in (like with maxed skills) or they are dynamic (like with overall XP), they can also simply be chronological or a combination of those things. How does your hiscores work?
I guess what I'm saying is there is a fundamental difference between a hiscores and hall of fame, I'm having trouble making that distinction right now because of the questions above.
I totally understand the premise of your point with MTX...

I think it is fair to assume many with 200 mil in all skills have purchased spins and gained loads of XP. If that's not directly linked to MTX then I don't know what is. Skills are game content after all.
RS3 is a MTX free for all. It is entrenched in the game. It can't be separated, so I suggest just let it be, totally wrong game mode to make distinctions regarding MTX (imo). The only other alternative is forget the XP altogether, I don't expect that will happen as it (understandably) wont be popular among the 200mil all crowd.
Okay, now to end on a positive...
Great work on the spreadsheet and the updating your thread, I hope you keep it up as well as any new reqs that are to come

Hiya AOROX, yep I've know about that thread for time.
My point about 'the race already been won' is more about this scenario...
AOROX: Hey Indy, I'll race you to 200 mil firemaking.
Indy: But you already have 200 mil firemaking xp.
AOROX: Yep and here's the hiscores...
1st: AOROX
last : Indy
If people were to see a similarity between the above scenario and these hiscores, I think that's understandable. But I don't wish to be so blunt or presumptuous to anyone. Thus I worded it in such a way in my previous post and asked questions in regard to how this all works
I'm hoping that's not the case here, there is a void when it comes to dynamic hiscores. Would be nice to see something that doesn't become stagnant, as in other Hall of Fame.
