Bug Global Champion issue

[Ozzy47]

Their may be a issue with the Global Champion showing correctly, I was not able to test this till it went public beta so I could install it on another site to test.

Here is a screenshot from my site.

Here is a screenshot from other site.

Both sites have, "Global Score Ranking" set to "Participate and show champions"

Both sites have, "Show Legacy Champion" set to yes

As you can see on my site my score is 401,050, which was my last score on my site, but on the other site it shows my global score as 1092, which was my last score on that site.

Attached is the game for you.

the game updates the global information upon a new score being submitted (to avoid any bandwidth issues between the servers - its a mutual exchange)
so, to update to the high score from your second site, you need to submit a new score for that game on the first site.

alternatively, the game does a onetime global pull from dbtech when you update it for any reason in the admincp (which also recounts the other stats).

Ok I played on my site (site 1), and now it shows the global champ on my site correctly.

Now on site 2 for the second position in global it is only counting scores submitted by that site, is that intended?

And on site 1 the second position in global it shows me, being the lower score, globably, but it has #1 in the second position, ie
#1 Real American 756,510
#1 Ozzy47 401,050

the global rank is calculated at the time it is sent and stored locally, so if the global champion changes and you havent personally scored again... then the ranks on your best score will be out of sync.

this is difficult to address, because consider that even now dbtech has dozens of sites with hundreds of games with thousands of scores.
if a game has many scores and another is submitted, i cant realistically push new ranks for all of the previous scores to all of the previous sites.
