Dirty caniving scheming mother... - Zing79, exposed...

hmm... well, i'll be honest here, this whole thing sounds like a "bug"

the "X place champion" msg which is displayed @ the begginin of each rounds works like this...

EVERY time u login, the game will check if you are in the top 3... if u don't re-login for a while, and your place changes, the game will still remmember whatever place you were in when you first loged in (clear enough ?? :biggrin

if you are behind a proxy, this complicates thing ever more... for some people, until they clear their cache, their "chapion standing" will not be refreshed.. thus, if some guy was in 2nd place 2 weeks ago, he'd still be in that place as far as the game is concerned (well, until he clears his cache to get the new version of the game)...:biggrin:

another problem is that sometimes the top scores server locks someone's score by mistake, and u'll see a no name guy with a "2nd place" or whatever...

bottom line, dont really trust that msg too much, much like most things in this game, it is still far from perfect...

one thing still bothers me though, whats wrong with login' in as "player" to play the game, i mean, your score will NOT be counted, who cares :biggrin:
