Arcade question

[Fűdge]

Some of the games, whenever i finish them, instead of submitting my score it says:
"This score was not submitted from the game. Your score will not be saved."
This is really annoying because so far i have gotten high scores in 3 different games but it hasn't been saved.
Why does it happen? and will it be fixed?

it usually happens for 2 reasons

1. you have multiple game tabs open at once and the id from the game you just finished playing does not match with the id of the last game you opened in a tab.

2. you refreshed the game and the ids got messed up


and well as usual there is the chance that soemthing got messed up just randomly.

If you are constantly experiencing it in one of the games post the link to that game and I will double check to make sure that it's working properly.


Also..... there is the ARCADE FORUM for such question in the future so.... post there next time please... moved.

Ok i was running two games at once, and i did refresh it more than once, because i couldn't be bothered going through the score submit a couple of times when i got a crappy score. So thats probably why it happened... thanks for helping, and ill post in the arcade forum in future =O

for futurue notice...you can only hold one spot on the highschore list.

if you get a score lower than your current best for that game, it will not be added to the highscore list. Only your highest will show on the highscore list scoreboard.

I know, but even if you get a lower score it will automatically load the high score page on most games. and since i have dial up internet it takes about a minute for it to load and me to get back into the game so i was refreshing it instead of being redirected to the high score page.

Actually I assume the problem was the 2 games loaded at once not even so much the refreshing.

Refreshing might, sometimes, lead to this error but having 2 games open at once will usually lead one of the two to this error. ;)

Ok, i had about 3 games loading at once cuz i am impatient =)
so now that i know why it happened you can close the thread if you want O.O

just one more thing to add.... you can load all the games you want at once just fine, but to avoid the score error you usually must refresh the game that you want to play.

The thing is the games usually get stored in your internet cache anyways so you won't have to go through the long loading sequence again when you refresh ;)
