So it doesn't just mean... the people on VN will be changed forever because of the consequences of their score?

Well, this will not be the case (unless Daniel can get us results a day early, which would be Legen---dary)

I reckon... A results leader board like those results threads they had in some subjects this year... it draws on the services of the s.s. calc and the atar calc to provide a projected enter score... and to answer the question that you're about to ask, you just have to be honest about your scores... to answer your seccond question, you just have to guess.

And once you get your real enter, you put it in and it cements your score forever on the leaderboard. The idea is that you can compare yourself to all the other students on the site (past and present).

I don't think that's a very good idea, it just boosts the arrogance of some and the competitiveness of others while enforcing some really bad values of comparison when atar is something personal to be appreciated by the self.
Though I'd love to nose around and see other ppl's scores :) LOL

I would say that atar is solely about competitiveness and comparison (it is a rank after all). Personal development doesn't realy mean a lot. And I also highly doubt that it is what enwiabe is planning, but I reckon it would be cool nonetheless
