They finally changed the ranking "bug" on the leaderboards

Those who do not know what I am talking about look here:

Now the rank next to your name is the same rank that everyone else sees next to your name when they look through the list. I went from having a Top Traveler ranking of like 24 to my current rank of 187. Granted my rank didn't actually change at all, it is just displayed correctly now.

  • Aw, I liked it the other way. Made me feel better about myself XD

    This is probably clearer though.

  • 975 streets = rank 18
    976 streets = rank 9 ??
    977 streets = rank 6 ??
    meh.. I've decided to just use it to see how many locations I've visited.

  • Ooola, that means there are 3 people at 977 streets starting with Rank 6, and Rank 6, 7, 8 are all ahead of 976 so 976 streets begins at Rank 9.

  • I don't get the point of leaderboards. In a game where there is no winning, leaderboards are the complete opposite idea.

  • Ooola: Think of a foot race.  If two runners tie for first place, the next runner is still the third to cross the finish line.

  • Thanks TomC and EDDIE. :) I trust you understand the statistics better than I do. If you guys are happy with the way it's expressed, then so am I.
    I think what is confusing me is that I don't see any rankings for 7 or 8 and I expect to.
    I'll have another glass of wine and not worry about it.

  • I liked it better when I was ranked 8, now I am 18 (sigh).  What about all those folks at the Top with too many streets?  Lol!

  • I hear ya, Brib ~the fact that some players have streets, other players will never be able to visit, count is unsporting.

  • Bump!

    I would really like to know if the Leaderboard for 'Top Travellers' is being, or going to be repaired?
