icon In-game hold rating? (0)  
When I try to rate a hold in-game, I get the message, "This hold or hold version was not found on CaravelNet and was not rated." Since that's happening for both The City Beneath and the I-just-downloaded-it Descending Into The Catacombs, it seems something weird is happening here. Any sense of what?

I'm not sure if it's relevant, but: When Larry's new hold was release, there were no votes so it wasn't downloadable in game. I voted a 5 - 5, downloaded it, and after playing it for a bit, updated my vote from in game. This worked as expected. However, on all other holds which do not currently have a rating from me, it gives me the same message as Tahnan mentioned.

icon Raiting from within TCB doesn't seem to work (0)  
I tried to rate Psycho Therapy from within TCB, and got the message that it wasn't possible, since the hold wasn't uploaded at CaravelNet, wich seems quite odd, since I have been getting highscores for the hold :)

Indeed, as Tahnan reported here.

OK, while I still can't rate TCB or The Cave of Eyes, I did just accidentally rate The Land of Pits (I was at the change-location screen and instinctively hit "R", because it looked like the restore screen). So I can in fact rate some holds in-game.

New bug, however: I gave the hold 4.5 brains, but after I hit "rate", it immediately moved the slider back to 4.0. Checking the forum topic, the rating I gave it was indeed 4.5; it's just the in-game display that's wrong.

I think you can only rate ones you've already rated.

But I don't think TCB ratings matter because there's no topic for it in the Holds board.

No, because I hadn't rated The Land of Pits yet.

Yup. It's not showing fractional amounts (i.e. .5s). I've fixed this for the next patch already.
