Restart Syndrome - High Score Boards

[Shepardus]

Just entered in a bunch of scores for non-Touhou games I've cleared (and Dodonpachi II - Bee Storm, which I haven't cleared), ran into a couple issues:

I was just trying to enter my score for Mushihimesama Original 1.5, but there's no option for PC as the platform, just Arcade and X360. I just chose X360.

If you enter two scores for Dariusburst Another Chronicle, both for the same route but for different ships, the higher score is treated as an improvement over the lower score and one of your ships' scores doesn't show up except in your own score history. You can see this in route K - I have scores for both Gaiden and Genesis, but only Genesis shows up. Also the site loads very slowly if I try to view the boards for routes where I've entered scores for different ships (H and K).

In route L scores, my score is appearing above a higher score in the ship-specific table:

The Mushi 1.5 is an easy fix - I've got PC added to the list and updated your entry.

The Route L issue is very odd. I think I need to go back and redesign how I'm querying the ship types - I've already noticed that the Route field on DBAC (and other "extra" fields like Rapid Fire on Mushi) don't populate properly in the split scoreboards.

Thanks for pointing these out - I'll set aside some time this weekend to look into what's wrong with the split boards.

I think I've got the problems with the ship split boards all ironed out. Please let me know if you see anything else.

Thanks everyone!

EDIT: I've just noticed that the split boards for certain games all display scores of 3. Was this happening before or did I fuck something up? Regardless I'll fix it. :3 (EDIT: I think I know what's wrong, and it's something I fucked up when fixing the previous issue. Will fix).

Quick bump for a question: It occurs to me that I haven't updated the "News" section since 2012. There's really never really any news to post, aside from new games - so I've been thinking I'd just replace it with the @shmups twitter feed which might be a better use of the space. But it occurs to me that maybe it's worth including tweets from other sources as well - would it be advisable to include tweets from people like Degica and Cave, for example, or would it be best to stick with the curated shmups feed and not clutter the section with others' tweets? Would be interested to hear your thoughts and/or suggestions of what twitterers might be worth including.

On the Wing Force board both the autofire options say "On."

Also, I can't upload my replay file for my first Cho Ren Sha 2-ALL (from October 2015), I put it in a .zip file and tried to upload it and the form appeared to go through, but there's still no link to the replay.

[CStarFlare]

Strange - a CRS replay should be well below the size limit and as a zip the extension shouldn't be a problem. Can you find some way to get the file to me so I can investigate?

(Wing Force is fixed, thanks!)

[Shepardus]

Neither uploading it as a zip nor renaming it to a .rpy extension worked. Here's the file.

Hey CStarFlare, what's up?

Yeah, I actually got another request I like to make of you for your website, restartsyndrome. You think you can add the game TWilight refrAIN, if that's possible? I would like to add what I got for TWilight refrAIN over there. Once again, I can tell you what to put in for there, if you need me to (Just like the last time), like the routes, stages, playable characters and their names, etc. You can also save replays on that game, too, as well.

[CStarFlare]

Yeah, if you could send a PM with the necessary info that'd be great. I know I looked at it when I added Twilight Insanity but can't remember why it never made it on the site - if there was some twist in how the game operates, or I couldn't find certain info or if I just got lazy.

[PurpleTheGuy]

Yeah, for sure, CStarFlare!

Yeah, I actually sent a PM to you just earlier, so yeah, whenever you have time, just check it out! I think I gave you all the necessary info you need to put TWilight refrAIN into your website, restartsyndrome, but if I somehow didn't include everything, and I left something out somehow or something around those lines, just let me know, and we'll go from there. Otherwise, I'm looking forward to you adding TWilight refrAIN into restartsyndrome, whenever you get to go do that!

Thanks, CStarFlare!
