I just noticed one interesting thing about the ranking:

If you get a higher score with S result, it will overwrite your lower score SS result, resulting in lower pp gained.
pp is supposedly somehow should be a measure of your skill, so getting a lower pp for harder map (more mods) seems kinda weird.

Can somehow explain the logic behind this?

Because the higher score is the one stored on the server

So, for example, if you have SS rank on the map, but with something like HR only,
you should leave it alone unless you think you can get SS with other mods too later,
since otherwise this will just overwrite your previous pp score for a lower one?

Depends on whether you think the score will be worth more

Like an OD7 map with SS you could probably actually get more from a 97% HR score or DT score

However avoid hidden like the plague though because the pp bonus from that is minimal compared to score bonus

yea

OP asked for the logic behind why scores get replaced and I explained why because logically the higher score is the one that gets saved

Which is harder, the mod play with non-existent acc or the nomodplay SS? It's not like you're in a high level play for these kinds of things to matter like some DT score not overwriting a high acc no mod score just because the acc/combo isn't good enough.

it's about 98% acc HR to beat 100% no mod (new maps are OD9 nowadays)

I remember when you had decayed down into the 5 digits and I thought, holy shit, someone who cares less about pp than me. Then you farmed to like 6k and I started losing some respect. :P

Too many fun unrankeds and underweighted ranked maps to be played though.

You always agree with me.

Besides with friends, multi with randoms isn't fun. I can't stand them as people, the opportunity cost of getting to know them well enough to decide if I would is too high, and you're stuck playing maps you probably don't want to play.

At least now if u use score v2 there's no need to worry that playing farm maps in multi will fill up your top plays with unneccesary stuffs
