Leaderboard (and reporting?) errors
It looks like either the leaderboard is showing the wrong platforms, or the sim is reporting the wrong ones to DARPA. I've completed exactly 2 campaigns, the Gator and the Remora. And my scores show up under Shark and Seahorse, respectively.
Is there anyone who can check up on this? I'm hoping it's just the leaderboard display that's wrong. It would be pretty unfortunate if DARPA is getting bad data. Last edited by noise_bomb; 04-08-11 at 03:37 PM. Reason: rephrase |

I did, but it sounded like a bit of confusion rather than a bug report. All I'm saying here is that I think I can confirm a bug in at least one of those two pieces mentioned.
If you want, I could post into the other thread, but it's not really a "suggestion", so I didn't think it belonged there. |

I dunno, maybe this deserves it's own thread.
It would appear my Shark score is shown as Triton, and my Gator score obviously is incorrect too--quite possibly because my Gator score posted to Remora and vice versa. Or maybe the reason I have no displayed Shark score is because that's where my Gator score went, and it is low enough to be off the board there. That it's happening to at least one other user means there is an identifiable error in the leaderboard.

After posting, I figured that was probably true.
As I mentioned in the other thread, I think two of our scores got switched. And yes, this afternoon I've been having issues reporting to DARPA. |

I'm sure the right folks are reading these threads and will look into the problem.

When uploading a result, does it upload all previous failed uploads or just that score? A lot of my scores have appeared on the board yet, and I had a day or so of failures followed by some successful uploads.

The leaderboard has been corrected- sure enough, we had the platform labels mixed up (on the leaderboard only, the data submissions are all correct).
The game saves your latest result per campaign and mission, and will try to transmit results from a failed transmission the next time you hit accept. If in the meantime you have replayed the same mission for the same ACTUV, however, your previous result will be lost. |

I'm sorry, but I believe you are wrong. The maximum possible Gator score is 74500 (9000+20000+20000+25500)... this is assuming HF contact for the full mission durations with no pinging and no fuel consumption. Every score listed (with the headings changed) is greater than this amount. It would appear that after you "corrected" the space in my name my Gator score *might* have migrated to this heading, but these are not Gator scores.
