We could try an experiment to see if it would work...Two steps are required: 1. verification: This requires that a copy of the player's scores folder or file is dropped into a clean install of the game to see if the score is visible in the high scores screen. The game engine won't display a high score if there was any manipulation of the original game or file. If a scores-verification group is set up then at least two people could independently verify each score. 2. posting: I need to insert, rebuild and upload the updated scores page to our website. I can set up a text file format template for the data to be added to. This would save me a lot of time and I could then set aside time to update the page once per week. Jim IP: |

1) OK, I can keep a clean install of both games on my PC to do just that. 2) No problem either.It would take some more volunteers - I'd say between 6 to 10 people - to do this (as I don't want to "certify" my own scores...) Coax LWA? Teulk? You guys OK with this? Anyone else? PLEASE POST HERE. Let's get this high score page up to speed!!! IP: |

Actually, I'm on the night shift this month, so I'll be unavailable (night-wise, anyway) until possibly next Monday...let me know if anything alternative comes up. I know how anxious everyone is for the up-dating of the site, and I sure would like to lend a hand where possible, so keep that in mind...you've got my ICQ, and I"ll leave it open as much as possible, so any messages can be left for me there..IP: |
