+*The tournament had multiple rule changes relevant to this table in [[0.34]]. Prior to this version:
+**Most Pacific Win was a category, which awarded points based on low kill count.

+**Streak Length was a relative category that awarded 10,000 points to the longest streak. The category is now worth double.
+*Prior to [[0.33]], Streak Length was a proportional category that awarded 400*length points.

 ===How a development cycle works===
 ''Crawl'' is in continuous development except during feature freezes. In development, features are added to [[trunk]] and tested there until they're removed, or the next stable version is released. A few weeks before a version release, a feature freeze will be announced, meaning only bug fixes and necessary balance changes are allowed until the start of the next development cycle. Once the tournament for a new release ends, the next development cycle starts, possibly with one or more "commit storms" by devs who were coding features during the feature freeze but couldn't implement them yet.

 ===Plans for 0.34===
 *'''Hellpan Roulette:''' This would change extended so only one of [[Hell]] or [[Pan]] appears in each game, while the other is replaced with a holy-themed area containing the '''alabaster rune'''. The demonic rune would be removed, and Pan would be made finite. Scoring will also need to be adjusted since there will be fewer runes in a single game.
 *'''Mummy dynasties:''' This would give [[Tomb]] more variety in its spawns, though no details have been revealed on how this would be implemented.
 *'''Nightmare:''' This is a species planned to be split off from monstrous [[demonspawn]], following a precedent set in 0.26 with the [[Nightstalker]] mutation being moved from Demonspawn to [[Kobold]]. The new equipment slot system would allow this species to have unusual sets of slots and abilities based on what they get. No species removal has been planned, and it would be themed as having a fragment of a dead god stuck to them and trying to wake up.
