Hey y'all,
I've been thinking that it's getting less and less likely to see a surge in active players for any given month, so we might be better of having year-round ranked play. So instead of monthly reports we'll have an on-going ladder system (using the existing ladder). The problem with this is your uploads there are probably going to be useless in-game. Due to the code for the ladder, the .rpy files (or any file you upload for that matter), seems to have some additional bits in the header (if I'm not mistaken). I think this is what might make for erratic .rpy behavior. It explains the size difference between the .rpy on the site and the one in your saved replays folder.
If anyone knows a bit of php or sql, I would love to use some help to figure out why it's doing this and to resolve this issue so the ladder can not only track ratings but also hold valid replay files.
Best,
V
