I don't know what happened! (12 posts)

    Last time I checked, I was in 90th place for Player Ranking. When I checked again today, it says I am in 172nd place. But the most disturbing part is that I lost 10 of my ATHs! (All are a.stoner's multiple choice country quizzes.)

    Please help,
    Tigger10

    I'm going to venture a guess that someone went on your page, looked at your ATHs, and decided they wanted to go and beat you in them. It's happened to me before.

    Or, somebody decided they liked that series of games and played them all to get the ATH in those games. I used to have many of the ATHs in my Number Trivia Series, as well as in my State Trivia Series. But eventually, people found them and played them. Today, I have only a few ATHs left, none of them in either of those series.

    Since all of tigger10's lost ATHs belong to one series, I suspect that this is what happened.

    BTW: I'm not complaining that someone took those ATHs from me. At the time I held them, hardly anyone else had played those games, except a couple of other non-speedsters, who also held some of those ATHs. Today, it is usual that we are mostly not even on page 1 on the player lists of those games. That's over 150 games and more than 10 more plays per game (sometimes several dozen more plays), so that's thousands of additional plays to my credit.

    I'm sorry Tigger10, I think I played almost the whole series of games of a. stoner, so I'm probably the one who took your ATH's. I'm sorry!

    My stats arent right either, I've played more games than shown in the leaderboard and I should have been Grand Master + several days ago...unless I'm missing something?

    @ Larkspur;
    Only the games that are played 20 times or more and have two 2-star ratings or more count for the leaderbord. For Grand Master + you have to have at least 20 ATH's.

    Mm, I see you have exactly 20 ATH's, and you played over a 1000 different games. Then you should be Grand Master +. Maybe you can ask David what's wrong with your scores?

    The problem in Larkspur's case is that some of the ATH's doesn't fall into the criteria of the games considered in the calculation making the ATH count for Larkspur < 20 = not grand master +

    I completely understand that the calculations are a bit confusing. Will be looked over for next major version overhaul.
