I installed the update patch and did a few rooms with challenges in Xindaris' First Hold, but they haven't shown up on the challenge page.

Posting here just in case this has something to do with the new patch.

Indeed it does - since I figured many of our more dedicated players would be using the 5.1 beta, I turned the spider off temporarily, as it won't recognize 5.1 demos until it's updated.

I see, my scores got added but not verified. I was a bit confused by that at first.

Hopefully I have restore points far enough in to get the missing ones without too much trouble.

That was more than five weeks ago (weeks, not days).

Perhaps it would be better to turn on the spider again?

Best wishes,

Nope. Once 5.1 is final and released, all demos and challenges that still work will pass the spider and quickly be verified. If I turn on the 5.0 spider now, tons of stuff will get rejected. If I update to in-progress 5.1, who knows what will pass or fail when it shouldn't.

This is also a problem

who knows what will pass or fail when it shouldn't.

And this is another problem.

I chose which problem to have, and I'm still okay with my choice.

The last 0.5% is the hardest.

Could you have split the queue, to unverified 5.1 demos and just run 5.0 ones still? Not that it's worth doing now, of course, but it might be an option to consider when 5.2 or 6.0 or whatever is in testing.

Eh, at this point it'd be a big waste of time and effort, and we're unlikely to be doing such a gigantic updates like 5.1.
