The battle for the Tower... or Us VS. "Plants Vs Zombies"

[GD_Elite]

I think these are related to the hack, but cannot be sure.

The games undead end, dynomite, zombie golf, zelda invaders and zombies destruction won't let me submit my score, and only give me the score of 0 on the highscores. I played zombie golf yesterday before the problems, and then I had no problems submitting my score. I'm not sure if this problem is just me.

Also, I think the Highscore-champions section at the top of the arcade home page is broken. At time of typing it says nikvoodoo has 8 highscores, Luna Guardian has 4 and usmcludwig has 4. Whereas when looking at the number 1 rankings on their pages nikvoodoo has 5, luna guardian has 4, usmcludwig has 3. To make the toal up to 16, j0be has 2 and Kc and me have 1 each. Is this meant to be the amount of number 1 rankings, or something else? I could not find any relevance to the 844 numbers in other sections. Perhaps games that have been deleted are still being counted, because I think nik had the highscores in alot of those.

Finally, I'm no technical wizard, but if popcap games were the problem, should bejeweled 2 be deleted as well?

@Kc the place to check is actually %appdata% my phone autocorrected

I'll look into those-

You're right. The calculator was qualifying games that weren't active. We had soft-deleted them, so the high scores were still there. They have now been hard deleted.

The popcap games that were a problem, or could have been a problem have since been removed. This bejeweled and big money are from trusted sources and don't have any malicious code with them.

I've had no problems submitting high scores to any of those games (I played through all of them and either was able to register a high score or get the message saying it won't register more than one high score per user).

Make sure you have "Remember Me" checked. I think j0be might need to add his code fix again for the arcade, but I'm not sure.

I'm definitely signed in and I'm not having problems with being signed out. I have played every game today, and those are the only 5 games that have done it. If you look at my arcade profile, it says n/a for those game regardless of what I do. But then I can go straight onto a different game and submit a highscore for that.

What browser are you using? Just trying to narrow down what it might be.

Using safari.

Ok, try it now...

Just tried zombie golf and it works. Thanks I will try the others now.

EDIT: No luck on dynomite though...
