Will it keep your old score each time you update with the web code, if so I think that is a bad design. Who wants to see only a few names on a top 50. a few people have 5 or more spots on the list.


yeah I think it keeps every score you submit. Which does suck.



I just noticed they fixed this glitch, which is actually really nice. Apparently I'm still at #66. This might goad me to try to fix that soon...

That's good news, but wouldn't it then be possible for someone to take someone else's name?

I hadn't thought of that. I guess it could be possible?

actually I'm wrong, it's not fixed. Look how many times the name "chrono" appears. Nevermind.
