[QUOTE="Tann, post: 240786, member: 2327"] Hey, InVitro, I think something is wrong about how you merge the guys playing with the same ID on different platforms. For example, [Sir Moovenstein] (PC) and [Sir_Moovenstein] (PSN). It's ok that you take the best scores for both IDs (on some tables, he has a better score on PC, on other tables, he has a better score on PSN), and use them to calculate the Top 100 points. But actually, once it's done, you delete the weakest score from the leaderboards. Why? Example: [TABLE="class: full_grid, width: 500"] [TR] [TD="align: right"]1 [/TD] [TD="align: left"]FUUTA[/TD] [TD="align: right"]500578510[/TD] [TD="align: left"]pc[/TD] [TD="align: left"]Space Shuttle[/TD] [TD="align: left"]2016-3-29[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="align: right"]2[/TD] [TD="align: left"]Dizzer2012[/TD] [TD="align: right"]242261120[/TD] [TD="align: left"]pc[/TD] [TD="align: left"]Space Shuttle[/TD] [TD="align: left"]2016-3-23[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="align: right"]3[/TD] [TD="align: left"]Sir Moovenstein[/TD] [TD="align: right"]103528930[/TD] [TD="align: left"]pc[/TD] [TD="align: left"]Space Shuttle[/TD] [TD="align: left"]2016-3-21[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="align: right"]4[/TD] [TD="align: left"]Sir_Moovenstein[/TD] [TD="align: right"]76844330[/TD] [TD="align: left"]psn[/TD] [TD="align: left"]Space Shuttle[/TD] [TD="align: left"]2014-11-8[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="align: right"]5[/TD] [TD="align: left"]vikingerik[/TD] [TD="align: right"]72740520[/TD] [TD="align: left"]pc[/TD] [TD="align: left"]Space Shuttle[/TD] [TD="align: left"]2014-11-8[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="align: right"]6[/TD] [TD="align: left"]Toolinit[/TD] [TD="align: right"]63289170[/TD] [TD="align: left"]ios[/TD] [TD="align: left"]Space Shuttle[/TD] [TD="align: left"]2015-7-27[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] You deleted [Sir_Moovenstein] (PSN), as vikingerik is #4 and Toolinit #5 for that table in your top (unlike in the master data). It's not because Sir Moovenstein scored better on PC, that its previous highscore on PSN is no more relevant. He made a score on PSN that still beats the guys behind, so deleting this score is unfair, as it gives more points to the guys behind, without doing nothing. EDIT: you also deleted from Cyclone: [code]2 Beamerboy 112281060 osx Cyclone 2015-8-8[/code] He has some good scores on others tables (Xenon, High Speed, Starship Troopers). [/QUOTE]
