Week 45 - Team rankings - XS at the top

[RichBa5tard]

The hwboint rankings have been opened just a few days back, and already we have seen some interesting shiftings. While the hwboint algorithm favours large teams over small - as more submitted scores means more scores applicable for recieving points - Team OCX Insano has managed to move up the rankings to spot #3, even though they are the smallest team in the top 10.

Team hof week 45Team XtremeSystems shows his its strength by both size and skill, bullying the second in place Extreme Promoteia by having 2 and 1/2 more points: 4815 vs 1966 hwboints. Unbeatable? Their lead seems unbeatable but it would take only 10 additional top members to reach their level. Getting top dogs K|ngp|ng and I_G on your team would make a world or difference in the current top 10 ranking.

Two more teams in the top 10 are worth noticing, OCTeam Finland - a bunch of crazy Finnish people who would probably freeze to death if they didn't have a bunch of conroes heating their room, and Overclockers Anonymous - a place where you can find refuge if you want to get rid of your overclocking addiction.

Keep in mind the algorithm for calculating the rankings is still under discussion, and might be tweaked in the near future. When it's final, weekly or monthly competitions will be held.
