There are two different credit modifier calculated: | ||
Ratio1 = Uploaded Total x 2 / Downloaded Total | ||
Ratio2 = SQRT(Uploaded Total + 2) | ||
Both ratios are compared and the lower value is used as modifier. | ||
Some boundary conditions also exist: | ||
> | Uploaded Total < 1MB => Modifier = 1 | |
> | Downloaded Total = 0 => Modifier = 10 | |
> | The modifier may not be lower than 1 or higher than 10 |
Notes: | |
> | All Clients uploading to you are rewarded by the credit system. It does not matter if the client supports the credit system or not. |
> | Not supporting clients will grant you no credits when you upload to them. |
> | Credits are not global. They are exchanged between two specific clients |
> | Credits are stored in the clients.met file. The unique user hash is used to identify the client. |
> | Your own credits are saved by the client who owes you the credit. This prevents faking the credits. |
> | Your own credits cannot be displayed |
