Hi,

Just spoke to T-Man again... and he has fixed the metaverse again... the problem came about due to server maintance/upgrades ... All the issues... eg: games submitted and empire pages not being updated have been fixed... all in less than 10 min while i was chatting to him...

Note: T-man has even changed the way the scores are displayed on the players individual sore sheet now... its in reverse order... latest games first... ... kool stuff... no longer need to scroll to the bottom to see your latest scores

And there I was trying to work out if I could "clone" the MV with the altmeta... Thanks, T-Man

I, too, am grateful for the fixed metaverse, though I wonder if the fix is complete. I use it merely to keep my personal scores, since I'll never rise too high. It shows with my name that I have logged 39 games, when I count 40 scores showing -- is this a problem because I submitted my last game during the "broken" iterim? Thanks!

Hmmm...looks fixed at first glance but really isn't.

First problem, my score in top 25 list is not even close to score in individual record. Second, it still does not show my submitted games from between March 3, 2005 and March 14, 2005 that were present before the metaverse had problems.

I see you have one on the 3rd and one on the 14th but none inbetween and I do not see anywhere were any are missing.  Everything is order that I can see.  No missings records in that time frame.  I also checked an old copy of the database and there none in there between those dates.  If there were scores submitted during that time and are not showing up there is nothing that can be done now.

Seems good now.  The system probably just needed some time to catch up and update everything.

I'm seeing 41 of 41 now so all appears to be good.

Ack! I was afraid that it would be something like that. Two games lost out of hundreds submitted isn't too bad I guess.

Oh well! Thanks T-Man for checking it out.

If you have fixed it, why stops it to count after 240 and why are my points in the metaverse not the same as in my records?

what is te 240 that you are talking about

the ccores arb't just an Add of your games scores..
they use a formula to calcilate the metaverse score

Block=0 to start and lasts for 30 days
(total score for block x)/(sqare root of the number of games in that block) - ((block no. *5)%*(total score for block x)/(sqare root of the number of games in that block)

If you want to look at your rank using RAW scores (IE: the scores listed in your player profile) you can always visit http://www.neotechgaming.com/portal.php?page=5&sid=9c29a39efa3b5575727abadc064fb874 to GalCiv HoF .. or the stat bot, or the Alt meta ..

hope this helps

Ah, it counts the ranks below 240 again...

I know the calculation. But why are in my profile and in the Alliance 73422 (and 34 games played) and in the Metaverse only 61310 points (and 33 games played) listed?

Along those lines have not been able to submit games to the Meta Verse myself since august of last year. Only have a dozen or so, but unable to submit from Altarian Prophecy. Had one this am,same problem, acts like it sent the score, but when I checked
it was not on the Metaverse.

The Meta is no longer showing my score or ranking. Only way for me to see my scores are in my profile. :sniff!: I was ranked 100 or so. Any chance this will be looked into at all?

Um, T-Man your message repeated like 30 times what happened? LOL
