I wonder what happened to attribute 20346 scores to Wallu?
I presume this is an error (though he's finally broken the 100K barrier ;)).

Could it be a lack of duplicate detection, since the spider is hibernating?

I've duplicated plenty of scores so I don't think it's that. I rarely play a room less than 5 or 6 times.

I spotted one example where Wallu was 1st and 2nd, both with demos of the same length but almost a year apart.

I see wallu as having 11127 scores, so the spider must be dealing with these duplicates.
