RE: Week 20 Steem Memory Game Contest – Win 20 STEEM! | Theme: Sports

Respected @kafio sir! The leaderboard automatically displays the top-scoring player in first place, and my name is already showing at number one. The first position is mine. So why was I given second place? The leaderboard also shows the first position based on the time manager, so why did you mark me as second?

Hi, thanks for the report. I will check what happened because everything is automatic.

I found a bug in the leaderboard sorting: when players have the same score and the same number of moves, it was showing the player with the longer completion time first. It should show the player with the shorter completion time first (since faster is better).

So now sariana23 (26.186s) correctly ranks above elsa-queen (26.196s) because 26.186 < 26.196 — the faster player wins the tiebreaker! 🏆I hope everything is clear now.

When I checked the leaderboard in the morning, I was in the first position. Now when I reviewed the steempro carefully, I noticed that you had been edited the post. The screenshot you have shared now also edited, as now the leaderboard was mentioned me in second position , I don't know what's happening. Below I shared the screenshot which showed you edited the post and changed the leaderboard.

Yes, I updated the leaderboard because there was a bug in the sorting logic.

Here's the old (incorrect) version:

What was the bug?
When two players had the same score and the same number of moves, the system was incorrectly showing the player with the longer completion time first. According to fair game rules, the player who finishes faster (less time) should be ranked higher.

Example from the screenshot:

  • elsa-queen: Score 1633 | Moves 14 | Time 26.196s
  • sariana23: Score 1633 | Moves 14 | Time 26.186s

sariana23 completed the game 0.01 seconds faster, so they should be ranked 1st — not 2nd.

Alright respected @kafio sir. Thank you very much for the clarification. However I request that in the future you please be more careful while announcing the results. So that no misunderstanding occurs for anyone else as it happened in my case. Thank you.
