Voting for events should be bound to global ranking

I think the top 50 Teams are well known and recognized. In my opinion, their evaluation of a CTF is the most valuable one, as these teams can pretty good decide if a CTF was of high quality or not. In order to increase the value of a well organized CTF i suggest, that these teams get the full rating spectrum from 0 - 100 Points without the initial point boundaries.

Benefits:

  • Faster identification of good CTFs
  • More points for teams organizing high quality events and creating demanding tasks
  • Faster rating decrease of deteriorating CTFs

What do you think about this adaption?

  1. Have you read https://github.com/ctftime/ctftime.org/issues/40 and also https://github.com/ctftime/ctftime.org/issues/61 ? Please do.
  2. I generally agree and I was advocating similar measures before, however just to play devil's advocate: there are lots of new/entry-level CTFs where top teams don't play. What about those? :)
