Top Traveler Rankings

[First off let me say sorry for bring up an old topic! However, I did search the forum and google to see if this had been explained already.]

So, reading the top traveler leader boards I see my rank listed higher then others with more locations. How does my rank listed at the bottom of the page relate to the other listed members and why do I not appear in the list directly? (ie between two other players on some page)

Just curious as traveler rankings (and all the other ranked lists) are one of my favorite things in Glitch :)

  • If you search 'ranking bug' you will get several hits. Here is one that succintly describes the bug and how it works:

  • MaryLiLamb, I don't think that link references the exact issue Boaz is referring to, if I understand it correctly. In this case it's possible that the reason people with more locations are ranked lower than Boaz is because the system hasn't completely updated yet. It takes time for all those stats to refresh and get calculated properly. I'm sure once they are refreshed, it will just be behind again from all the new additions, so it may never be synched up completely right. That's just my guess, any way.

  • Ahh, I mis-read his post. In that case, I suggest that he also look at TomC's Locations thread because he goes over many possible scenarios and I believe this same situation has been discussed recently though you do give a good reminder of an often overlooked situation.

  • Thanks for addressing my question both of you. MaryLiLamb, that was the issue I was interested in and that thread more or less answers my query.
    Thanks so much both of you for helping.
    Cheers
