When going into the demo screen in a room -- after conquering it and with a good connection -- the high score list of best demos only shows up sporadically. The rest of the time it says "There are no high scores for this room." In any given room, it happens seemingly at random; sometimes the list is there, sometimes not with no variable obviously explaining the cause. Leaving and coming back can change the state. This has been happening since I started with TCB 3.2.0.83. Not a big deal, but it is a pain.

Incidentally, even when this happens my scores load and I get the place marker flashing on the screen.

Thanks.

I'm getting the same thing on Windows, so it's not limited to OS X - but then again I'd guess it has to be some server-side issue...

And I'm getting the same thing on Linux - been having this issue though since the original JtRH on Windows a long time ago. I'm pretty sure the original JtRH was ok and that a patch introduced the bug.

Possibly unrelated, but I noticed about on 7/4/2008 11:30am MST all high scores started to appear as "grayed out", i.e. not downloadable.

Maybe it's a database reboot or something, maybe it's a new problem.

Also see this thread.

This isn't a problem. I'm in the middle of making some large changes, which make demos uploaded before about that time temporarily not downloadable. They'll all be fixed, don't worry.
