    It happened again! Drew06 won number 12 with only a fraction of a second! A nod to you. And Sven-the-man2 is runner-up, well done! And strangely enough, Sven-the-man2 also won the random nod! Out of 24 players who finished with a 100% score on all six games, he won it...
    And I promise you it really is a random nod. Nice third place, Poul!

    You can see the top twenty here and the games that were played:

    I don't believe there are fractions of a second. I think it's just whoever completed the games most recently goes to the top even though the other person retains the ath. At least, this is what I've noticed-for example, in the one dot games there are countless people with 0.0. The person with the ATH might not even rank in the top 5, he is just being surpassed by the more recent times, as opposed to any time differences (which, in a one-dot game, wouldn't exist). There was a discussion of this in one of the main tournaments some months back I believe. Although I don't think David has actually spoke out definitively on it.
    Regards, Eoin.

    Congrats Drew! I must say people who played that tournament are way fast! So my respect to all of them, I tried my best and it led me to 14th place :P

    Well, Eoin, perhaps you're right. If David sees this, I hope we can have an answer. I'll send him a copy of this right away.
    Thanks for taking up the discussion, I've always thought there were "fractions of a second", but... ?
    Greetings,
    Paul

    I think there are fractions of seconds, but only to the 10ths. I think the ATH goes to whoever got to that place first.

    In one-dot (or few dot) games, there will be many ties, but the ATH is not shared, as far as I know.

    I'm not sure it would be easy (or worthwhile) to go to 100ths of seconds.

    And Eoin is correct: I also recall previous discussions of this.

    Yes, by fractions I meant hundredths.

    Bix has since achieved sole ownership of the ath..

    It's actually cropped up a few times so it might be worth determining an offical stance.

    At this time, we only measure 1/10 of a seconds as smallest fraction.
    It's been debated whether or not to go for 1/100. I have not seen a strong movement for nor against, so if anyone makes a strong case for it to change there may be a possibility for that in the future.
