NOT UNDERSTAND THE MARKERS

First there were these positions (monthly):
PLACE SCORE TIME
1 45 0:56
2 45 1:05

the same (tournament):
PLACE SCORE TIME
1 45 0:56
2 45 1:05

And then (tournament):
PLACE SCORE TIME
1 101 1:17
2 45 0:56
3 45 1:05

COULD SOMEONE EXPLAIN HOW ARE THE POSITIONS??
In the monthly chart I am the first (For making the fewest number of moves) and the tournament I'm in second place. (I do not understand why???)

In the tournament remains in first place if you make more moves???. and the monthly board remains in first place if you do less moves???

********************************************************
I think you win if you do fewer moves in the shortest time. or not???

********************************************************

AND THEN I PLAY AGAIN...
I GET FIRST PLACE, WITH THE LARGEST NUMBER OF MOVES
IS THIS CORRECT???

PLACE SCORE TIME
1 103 3:50
2 101 1:17
3 45 1:05

I can confirm your problem, ryu2009.

It should be lowest score (fewest moves) wins, with the tiebreaker being time. The monthly and all-time scores list are set based on that. When I just tried the tournament a score of 45 and a time of 1:12 put me at the bottom (but correctly below the player who timed 1:05) and a score of 47 improved my position one rank (which shouldn't have happened).

This is certainly not what I had in mind when I had requested the game for a tourney. One possible solution might be to manually adjust the tourney win after the tourney has officially ended, since the true best scores/times will also be on the monthly score list. ArcadeBoss will likely have a better solution though, I suppose we'll know soon enough.

That's right. The problem is that putting the highest score, not the lowest score and to win you need to get the lowest score getting the fewest number of moves.

I check this problem, today I did 500 and got the first place in the tournament, then made 45 and not win anything, is taking the highest score

I hope AB will help us, and your possible solution is good, Tnks soultaker777.

Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention.

My original implementation of tournaments did not have the code to correctly handle low-score games and we have handled this by avoiding low-score games, but I guess Sloyd 3 slipped through.

No problem. It was time to fix this anyway. I've added support for low-score tourney games, so they should work correctly now...

There was one additional issue that needed to be corrected, and that is done now.

Please let us know in this thread if there are any more problems.
