Some 691 shares require up to 209 points to evo

This evo issue showed up in puzzle 695 also.

Cassandra's share of 28649.624 requires 35535 to evo.

Ok, smilingone, I have been investigating the issues with puzzle 691 that you posted in this feedback, and I can report some findings back to you.

(However, note that you actually raised multiple issues in your feedback, and some of these issues I am still investigating.)

Ok, so my findings to date are as follows:

  1. pvc78 share of 15555.682 requires 15693
    In this case, the reason why you will need a score of at least 15693 to evo this solution is because pvc78 had actually achieved a soloist score of 15691 at some point prior to when the solution was saved. Although the score was 15555 at the time the solution was saved, the score required to evo is based on the best score reached, i.e. 15691 + 2 = 15693.

  2. bertro share of 15708.284 requires 15917
    This case is similar to #1 (above). In this case, the reason why you will need a score of at least 15917 to evo this solution is because bertro had actually achieved a soloist score of 15915 at some point prior to when the solution was saved. In this particular case, it looks like bertro's best soloist score of 15915 was actually achieved and recorded in an earlier session (and perhaps recorded via the autosave feature?). Nonetheless, the score required to evo is still based on the best score reached, i.e. 15915 + 2 = 15917.

  3. bertro share of 15814.891 requires 15917
    This case is essentially the same as #2 (above). Although the score at the time of saving the solution is different from that of #2 (15814 vs. 15708), bertro's best soloist score of 15915 is still what determines the score required to evo of 15917.

  4. bertro share of 16288.205 requires 16611
    This case is actually the evolver version of #1 (above). In this case, the reason why you will need a score of at least 16611 to evo this solution is because bertro had actually achieved an evolver score of 16609 at some point prior to when the solution was saved. Although the score was 16288 at the time the solution was saved, the score required to evo is based on the best evolver score reached, i.e. 16609 + 2 = 16611.

I am still investigating the issue of the score, when a solution is loaded, not equalling the score, when the solution was saved.

tjbertram:

Then the question becomes: where are those solutions with higher score? Because neither are available thru the Very Best / Credit Best buttons and in any of the Autosaved / Quicksaved solutions.

It is as if the client only registered those high score internally.

Is this a case of the non-filtered score being recorded, and used to determine the score needed to evolve a solution?

I think it has to do with the shift in points
when loading a solution from 1450 into 1455.
I've noticed that the aflatoxin residue's
bonding score in 1455 is about half what
it was in 1450.

It might also have to do with whether 1455's
penalty for extra residues is zero or nonzero.

Thanks for the note! I think I know what the problem is—for puzzle 1455, at least.

In puzzle 1450, all ligand interactions were up-weighted by a factor of two; this is not the case in puzzle 1455. We might be able to close and repost an amended version of puzzle 1455.
