Score in races

Hey guys!
If I'm not wrong, since 2006 players have won less points in races than in death match.
Yesterday, when I was doing "that"
I thought that it could be done a little change.
Before explaining it... you know that there are 2 ways to win a race, right?

- Getting all the marks
- Being the last player alive (as a death match)
- Players who win getting all the marks or if the opponents leave would win the same points than in a death match
- Player who wins being the last player alive would win less points, but losers would lose the same than in a death match (to avoid their suicide to lose less points)

Hmmm...
The idea is nice, because people would be motivated to finish the race.
Im just wondering if this could be used to cheat. I don't yet see any way to raise your score by tricking this.
But there's still one problem:
If a player is obviously loosing the race because ob being behind, he could simply commit suicide to lower the winners award. Any idea how to solve that?

Sure, but they could still lower the points, that the winner would gain (by suiciding).

I think the points won in a race must be same than in a death match, or maybe more, cause you have to think more to stop players if they are winning.
About suicide, what to say?. I really hate it, but a lot of people do it in death match too, ex: "rapidos"

First I thought, the only solution would be to change the basic rules and give players unlimited lives there.
But that would create another problem with races that are not solvable.
So if we want to rise the motivation to finish races, there has to be a completely different solution, imho.

In death match maps you have to think how to do a good defense and how to kill the opponent...I think there you think more.
I don´'t agree, you can play a race like a death match, but is not enough a good defense and try to kill the opponent, you have to think more things, how to finish the race and how don't let the other finish.

For me, no need to change something about scores in race... It's a detail.



I wrote how to solve it!
And now?
