This is a really minor request, and not very crucial. What I want to see is the option to replace my own current score. Right now, when you create a demo which gets into the highscores, and then create another one with the same amount of moves, what shown is the first one. What I want to happen is later scores with same number of moves replacing previous ones.

Why do I even want it? It happened to me several times when optimizing, I beat the current #1 in a standard way, then start experimenting trying to get an even better score, and find an alternate solution which is way cooler, but not more effecient...

Well... what if you got that cooler solution first, then on a second try got the boring old solution? If we were to change this, we'd probably want to let the user pick which to keep, but when/where would that choice be made?

If there was an option to upload one specific demo:

If that option was used the demo would be overwritten.
If it was uploaded in another way (normal playing, mass upload), then demos would not be overwritten.
