Rating & Score
The Queue list shows the clients currently waiting for an upload slot. This
list is shown by pressing On Queue in the Transfers tab.
Most of the values shown are pretty self explaining except
Rating and Score.
Rating
Initially each client on queue has a rating of 100.
This start value is modified according to the shared file
the users requests and some other factor:
| > |
Banned
Modifier:: x0
Banned users get no Rating and thus no upload slot. |
| > |
Low ID
Modifier: none [x0.8]
Versions prior v.27a assigned a modifier of 0.8 to low
ID users. This has been dropped |
| > |
Connected
Modifier: none [x1.5]
The bonus of x1.5 for being already connected has been
dropped with v.27a+. |
| > |
Credits
Modifier: x1 - x10
The credit system calculates
this major modifier according to the upload / download
ratio. |
| > |
File priority for shared files.
Modifier: x1.8 - x0.2
Users requesting a file for download will receive a modifier
according to the chosen share priority of the file. Versions
prior v.27a use the values in [ ]. |
| |
Release: |
x1.8 [x5] |
| |
High: |
x0.9 [x2] |
| |
Normal: |
x0.7 [x1] |
| |
Low: |
x0.6 [x0.5] |
| |
Very Low: |
x0.2 [x0.2] |
| > |
eMule version older v.20a
Modifier: x0.5
Versions prior v.20a cause high network load and get a
penalty modifier of x0.5. |
Example:
A client has earned a credit modifier of x8 by uploading much.
He is requesting a file with a high priority. His total Rating
will be: 100 x 8 x 0.9 = 720
Score
The score is calculated with the same modifiers as described
in Rating but also takes the waiting time of the
client into consideration. The score determines the allocation
of free upload slots. Clients with high scores and *** after
the value are next to receive an upload slot.
The formula to calculate the score is:
Score = Rating x [Waiting time in the queue [s]] / 100
Clients with a total modifier > 1 will have a yellow client
icon.
