Someone's posting scores on the leaderboards using my name

AntonR · Sep 16, 2014

There are scores by "AntonR" on the leaderboards that are not mine.

This other "AntonR" has scores on at least these tables:

#4 on Black Hole (My score is at #15)
#9 on Gorgar (#18)
#6 on Black Knight (#78)
#6 on Big Shot (#29)
#4 on Genie (#13)
#3 on Firepower (#12)
#4 on Central Park (#39)

Since they are better than yours what's the problem ? JK

Not to mention the #1 score on Dracula: 48 billion points.

Oh my god, all this time I thought those were your scores. Thanks for clearing this up. Wait, who are you again?

Darn. Was hoping it wasn't after reading this

With FailSight being a known troll account (I think?) that would've made the top score more attainable. 48B? Really! Are there any extra balls after 56 loops - I got up to 90-something without a sniff of another! Maybe at 120, since they go 8-24 (+16)-56 (+32)- 120? (+64?)

There was one late extra ball but I didn't pay much attention to the amount of loops. I think it might've been at 120 loops.

Any chance those scores actually are yours, but went to the wrong tables on the leaderboards?

WhiteChocolate · Sep 17, 2014

any way thru promode adjustments to weasel thru high score tables? i like playing 10-ball/10EB rounds for practice, but i do wonder how well tpa keeps scoreboards separated - lol i racked up 3+ billion or something last night, last game on bsd before bed. it saved my initials for a (i presume) localized highest score, but i was off-net then - isn't there some storage/caching of hs tables for when someone is next online? wonder if there's some cross-talk or something there. that's a total guess though; maybe not so systematic that -everyone's- 'cheat' mode scores show up. i'll watch for my own and see if they get out over to the network tables at all...

No chance. Those scores aren't connected to my account. The only table I've played this month is Dracula and I think those scores are from last week. The scores are sort of plausible, like 17,846 on Central Park. That one couldn't be from other table.

Pro Mode disables worldwide leaderboards completely. Local high score tables are preserved.
