No. It is a messsage for zwaxy? that there has been upload for gundealr. The score must be manually adjusted. The score is like 11-30 ( is level-round) which cannot be entered in the score filed when submitting a recording.

The problem right now isn't a score that needs to be manually adjusted, but it's just someone using the wrong system. Now, I'm not naming names (you know who you are, Mr. Newest-to-10,000) but this player used his own scoring system, and didn't play till he reached 0, he stopped midway through and used that score for Gun Dealer. Someone needs to play it back and get the level from there, otherwise we'll have an inaccurate leaderboard score for Gun Dealer...

Only level 1 round 2. This guy has submitted a lot of low-scoring games recently. Looks like he's trying to upload a score for every game.

Yes, he's currently trying to play every game playable in win35... Of course...he has a little problem with accuracy... For example, he submitted a score for Gryzor, but that game didn't exist till beta 3, and the game he DID play, the Gryzor bootleg, was renamed contrajb in beta...um...2? But whatever it was, he forgot to list it accurately...

Also, he has 100 points on an incorrect game. Sakuragi, submitted a score on Alex Kidd, apparently for the original version. However, THAT version was not emulated until beta 2, and the version he did play was renamed twice, from alexkidd to alexkdbl to alexkida, the current name. Someone needs to change those recording names... (I'm pretty sure he will do an incorrect Heavy Barrel and an incorrect Midnight Resistance recording too)

Concerning gundealr, I think we should only take for the hiscore the number of the round reached ...for example my best score will be 32 instead of 11-32 (moreover the number of the level depends entirely on the number of the round as there is 3 rounds per level)

And I think it would be more simple for the leaderboard system ; what do you think about that , Zwaxy ?
