There are mistakes in the Rules in eight tracks of "Kevtris".

https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/kevtris/colecovision

More specifically, in EMU-Builder-Skill 6,7,8,9 Lines & Points the rules mention [Normal Game] instead of [Builder Game].

For the game Track & Field on MAME, could the following tracks be updated to reflect two decimals, please:

https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/track-field/mame/high-jump-meters/page/1

Thanks. :D

I recently received 100 submission points as a "bounty" reward. These 100 points seem to come and go as they please :) No big deal, but it might be good for you to know.

Could you delete the Moto GP speedrun in the proposed leaderboards please?

Why do some players not have a profile page even though they have a score page? (Tom Duncan, Mr. Kelly R. Flewin, Magnus Andersson, William Willemstyn III, Zoilo Adalia from the first 35)

They are players from the previous incarnation of TG so have not created a profile in the current incarnation.

incarnation? why weren't their profiles just transferred? I also notice that the "Most World Records" list needs updating. The ranking is based on the total scores of the players

Possibly the wrong word but "era" or "incarnation" could be used loosely given that it's a company, not a life form or specific boundary of time. 2014 (January?) is the "Jace Hall" incarnation. Prior to that TG was essentially dead for a year or so. Numerous other owners & part owners back to 2011 (2012?). Pete Beauvier (spelling?) back to 2007/8 and Walter Day before that (some have suggested there was a period in the 1990s when someone else but I have no knowledge directly). Walter Day (& business partner?) incepted TG back in the early 1980s.

I don't know the specifics of the integration but there are two scoreboards: the old one (TG Records > The Original TG Historical Database menu) and everything TGSAP-onwards. They are integrated, there is no "transfer".

As it stands, there is more data for people to chase & improve up the "ladder". I'd like to see both & more leaderboards - more ways for people to compare & contrast. :)

but how are there players without a profile page? what are they, ghosts? :))

Τhe "Most World Records" board is wrong. It shows you with 13,810 scores, while according to your page you have 1,245. It shows player trivia212005 in third place with 3,926 WR while he only has 245.

I believe that is because they have never logged on to the new TG site and setup their profile page.

I believe the Most World Records ranking counts all first place scores whereas on your profile page it only counts first place scores with other competitors in at least 2nd place. Others tied for only 1st does not count.

So for Barthax, he has 13,810 first place scores but only 1,245 have other place holders (players he has scored better than). Same for trivia212005 having 3,926 WR, most of which are Guitar Hero related with him being the only player, and 245 WR with competitors.

It would be great to have the Member Activity Rankings showing this view as well.

Yes of course, that's the reason. Apparently it's because of the old rules, when the first place counted as a WR even if it was the only sub in a game. But now there has to be another, lower, score. That's why I said the board needs to be updated. The number on our page has to agree with the number on the "Most WRs" page.

No, the ties of first place count.

Interesting - I guess that only effects ESI.

When the change to user profiles was made, I did make the case that the leaderboard has value (as it currently is) for people's long-term targetting. It's an easy reference point for where they may be easy targets, for example. Anyone high on that list that hasn't been active recently is probably not going to defend their scores (and I have far too many to make "defending everything" impossible).

I've got to wonder if it's a marketing ploy. If the genuine marketing is that there's only a "TG World Record" when there is more than one score on the scoreboard then the change could be headlined as "Twin Galaxies denies 40 years of World Records" ("denies" could be "devalues" or "demotes" or various other negatives).
