In: s/farkle

the high scores are only updated when strictly greater than existing score

I think what @satch meant is that if two or more people tie at the top, can there be multiple simultaneous weekly high score holders (during the week or at the end)?

🍀 gritty [mod] · Jun 26 at 15:41:

I wasn't planning on having multiple high scores. The tie goes to the existing high score.

Sorry if this whole thing has been unclear. When I made this post, stack hadn’t made it to first place yet and the new weekly high score was going to be:

8900 cthulhu28

8900 drh3xx

I was wondering, in the case of a tie for first where that score is higher than the existing record, what happens?

Hopefully this makes sense now.

🍀 gritty [mod] · Jun 26 at 19:38:

ohhh. That's a case I hadn't considered. At current I think it would log the first one and skip the second, depending on the ordering.

let me think on how to resolve that...

just a quick thought is maybe by timestamp. there may be a better way
