Is the timer correct on this contest? Two of the stages say they end in 4 days, one says 8 days, and the title says the contest ends on Mar 10, 12 days away. Are the stages staggered or everything ends on Mar 10, like the banner says?

it's not fair to have a challenge that we have LN2 guys VS Water-cooling guys !!!! you need split it into 2 chapters that we have proper chance thus you make the competition more sweat . it doesn't matter how the prizes are . but we need a fair challenge.

Yea, I know, same happened to me. The hardware I was planning on using doesn't even arrive until tomorrow. Fooled by the banner.

Why has my CPU frequency score changed. Under recent submissions and in HWBot.com it is giving me points for 5027.47 mhz when my score clearly is 5228.57 or 5229MHz. I had .7 Hardware points a few days ago for it now it is down to .1

I believe the score was removed due to not complying with the validation requirements
