@gritty Is the game stuck? It should have advanced to the next day hours ago...

that is odd, I haven't touched anything in several days. I'll check it out
🍀 gritty [mod] · Jun 23 at 11:19:
looks like the tie for first broke something. I tested this on my machine many times with no issues...
I'll manually reset for now and log the points.
🍀 gritty [mod] · Jun 23 at 11:48:
I manually reset everything and updated scores.

Thanks!
🍀 gritty [mod] · Jun 23 at 18:27:
Pushed a patch. Next tie should process correctly.
🐐 satch [👑] · Jun 25 at 12:15:
How is the tie for high score going to be processed?
🍀 gritty [mod] · Jun 25 at 17:07:
both get equal points for that spot
🐐 satch [👑] · Jun 25 at 18:01:
Sorry, I meant high score not first place
Weekly high score
🍀 gritty [mod] · Jun 25 at 21:21:
the high scores are only updated when strictly greater than existing score
🕹️ skyjake [OP, 👑...] · Jun 26 at 04:03:
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.
🐐 satch [👑] · Jun 26 at 16:07:
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...
🍀 gritty [mod] · Jun 26 at 19:39:
just a quick thought is maybe by timestamp. there may be a better way
