Hi Redelf

Upon checking we found that 1 score is a team score and the other one is an individual score. The scores are removed when the name and userid matches

Please remove the above score as it was meant to be replaced with the score from below.

Rock Band 2 has a legacy typo in the "Girls' Gone Grey" tracks. The correct title for the track is "Girl's Not Grey". Could the following tracks be updated to correct the track title, please: https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/rock-band-2/xbox-360/?track=Girl%27s%20Gone%20Grey

This game should be listed as PS4:


https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/new-star-gp/playstation-5/page/1


I thought this was one of the many games that has both a PS4 and a PS5 release, but it only has a PS4 release--It's backwards compatible with PS5.


Thanks

I'm trying to create tracks for the PAL version of Gold Medal Challenge for the old NES. There are only NTSC tracks in the database at the moment. Why does the form get stuck on the track title saying that it's not unique? There is no track with that name.


See video!

I've seen this happen before. The system is set up to not have any duplicate titles, but yea, adding on to existing games can be tricky. Switch up the title. If it were a points run, you could write "High Score" instead of "Points". You need an alternate title for "Fastest Time"........(tricky!)

Add some extra garbage to the title if you have to. Explain the issue in the track creation thread's second post. When the track gets created, edit the game before the first submission and take out the garbage to return it back to the "duplicate" that you weren't allowed to use. ;)

I put the word "PAL" at the end instead. Works, but still annoying. I will edit it later then.

Sorry for filling up the proposed leaderboards queue ;)

I found a typo I made on Zaccaria Pinball for PC platform. Could you change the references to "Red Star Deluxe" to be the correct table name of "Red Show Deluxe", please. https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/zaccaria-pinball/pc/?track=Red%20Star . I have corrected those I am able. Thanks. :D

Hehe, you need to get a grasp on Derivative tracks, IMO. Create one through the Track Creation for SP and then create many more for free. ;)


Pick any game you already have a track in your mind. Go to Create Track and choose the Create Derivative Track option. Fill in the form for the track you already have created from the drop-down options. You'll see there's a new description: fill that in with the "next track for this game", click next & submit. The new track is on the scoreboard ready to edit for any differences. :D

I only thought it worked when the exact same rules applied for all the derivate tracks. That's why I did it this way. I won't make this mistake again, haha. Thanks!

Is the maintenance routine running most of the day now?


Two days ago I was at -6392 SP:


It recovered, seemingly for a moment, yesterday (16th early morning GMT time zone) while I was asleep (my bot managed to a few scores while I was asleep) and when I awoke, I was on negative again and have been since. Currently at -6343 SP:

Just to be clear: you are correct. However, we now have edit access to any tracks of our own tracks where there are no scores submitted. ;)

What's up with Alien Storm?

https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/alien-storm-set-3-world-3-players-fd1094-317-0148


In the Single Player track there is an approved sub from two players. HAL-LOZ added their scores, when the other players only have a single score.

i'd guess its the result of blind voting. It can always be disputed.

and meanwhile a false score will hold first place. And no one could beat it. Dispute? You mean 4000 points, great. And what if no one disputes? It's already 2 years.


TG needs to improve some rules.

Hello admins!


I used to have an account from way back when I was I kid. I was unable to recover it when I tried last year, so I created this account. Is it possible to merge my old scores to this new account? The old profile can be found here: https://www.twingalaxies.com/scores.php?player=51893


Thanks!


Best regards

Now, this was confusing. I created a bunch of tracks for Gold Medal Challenge (NES) since I didn't find any for the PAL version of the game. I might have missed it, but there are two version of the game in the database:

This is strange since it's the SAME GAME. I thought the game (on the left) only missed PAL tracks, that's why I created them. Are all games that can be played in NTSC or PAL supposed to have different titles like this?


Either way, since the tracks are already there you can delete these tracks and proposed leaderboards:
