I'm seeing what can be done about the time bonus, but can't promise anything.

I did notice that about the time bonus. It would be awesome if it could fixed.

I just checked and it appears there is a technical snag with this for now. Sad

We may get it one day, but doesn't look like it will make it for the contest.

As a tip to those competing, especially those with a maxed-out score, please keep in mind that our scoring system will RANK by TIME TAKEN when the scores are TIED.

It's very important if you want to maximize your RANK, that you make an effort to SUBMIT your SCORE as QUICKLY as possible after the game is over. An extra delay of even 1 SECOND to click the submit button, could cause you to rank lower if you are tied.

It's too bad there is a technical snag. Oh well, I guess that is the way the ball bounces.

too bad i couldn't be fixed... Is there any way to reset my score ?

D@ve, why would you want to reset your score?

That's not going to help you.

The only thing that could help you get a higher ranking is finishing faster, and the only way you can do that is to make sure you hit the submit button is soon as it appears.

sorry but i've tried it many time and it wont work if I dont make a better score which is impossible as I already have max score ....

perhaps you have correct this problem so I will try again Wink

EDIT : I confirm that It dont work

I did it in less than 5 minutes and time saved is still this f*ckin 5.46 m Sad

So I still ask you Boss, could you reset my score one time please ?

D@ve, did you start the time as soon as the page loaded?

... mhh perhaps not but anyway game do not load for 50 secondes and Nitestalker has the same problem with many game , if your score dont change, then it's useless to make better time because it does not save it.

Okay, you are right, I forgot that I hadn't finished my score overhaul. Embarassed

But, I've spent an hour or two on this tonight and now I've finished updating the highscoring system for all the newer games (Rat Maze 2, Mario Boat, etc.) to also take the time taken into account when highscores are tied.

Yeah! Cool

But it does need to be tested. Please give it another try and see what happens now.
