As to my knowladge, his scores only exsist on songs that don't infact exsist, but I'll remove those too.

lightdarkness SoDeepPolaris on chrono trigger bodd theme. im not sure if its hacked but i think it may be impossible to achieve a score that high :/

[Doug31]

I don't believe any of the high scores on Chrono Trigger. There are too many notes that have bugs, so they are guaranteed misses. A combo big enough to get any of those scores is impossible, I think.

[XXXsmittyXXX]

thats what im saying

[boogiebear34]

Yawn* there is already a topic for "Hacked scores" Why would any 1 create a new 1.

[igotrhythm]

Because people like you have no concept of fair play, that's why.

I think I heard once from Bandit that the maximum combo on Chrono Trigger the way it is right now is 313. Which leads one to ask...how many "guaranteed misses" are there in this song? I'll need this information before I work out the max score by hand.

That, or we could just wipe that song from the database so nobody will complain about it anymore.

Edit: My sympathies on the loss of your cat, LD.

Again.

Where i got the msis was on the last hard up jack. any scores in between mine and nimas are highly unlikely because there's nothing especially hard to break your combo on after i got that one miss. besides that there's talk that they are boogiebear, and really nobody's heard of them period anyway. they dont have any high scores except on bullshit songs :/

I found some cheated scores on Zombie Room.

The odd thing is, a lot of them AREN'T in actuality cheaters, unless their scores skyrocket by tens of thousands above the highest possible score.

A lot of the time, I've seen newbs do this in MP, people will hit a couple arrowkeys as the game starts. It seems at the beginning of EVERY song, if you hit a key or two, you're bound to hit a secret arrow. From there, if you full combo the song, you get pushed a bit higher than the #1 score.

Granted, the scores should be erased, just quick neat little explanation. But that is definitely how they do it. ^_^

[chickendude]

if you use firefox and a slow internet connection, you can click a song, change your mind when its part done loading, and pick another song and it will play the first one in slow motion and compare your songs score to the second one.
Like iirc someone ended up playing burnout and getting the top score by FAR in william hung

[female]

That's not happening here though, and scores like that haven't been showing up much recently. It's more just songs with people hitting a few hidden arrows and their max combo driving them a bit above the high score. ^_^ That's interesting though.

I don't think what's going on with SZR is cheating, Doug. I recently AAAed that thing myself (hooray! ^_^), and the difference between the AAA score and the "hacks" are subtle:

We know that the top legit score is 568850. We now work things out:

Kulchad1234 has a score of 569300 for second place, a difference of 1300-850=450. Awfully low differential for hitting secret arrows there. I'm thinking this is a hacker who's trying to slip under the radar. We might want to watch for him in more high score lists to see if there's a pattern, assuming he has enough high scores to deduce one.

The top "scorer" Joemaster01089 posted a score of 570380. We calculate:
2380-850=1530. This amounts to an extra perfect (possibly a secret arrow at the start of the level), but with a boo as well, along with a regular AAA. Wipe the score, sure, but he might not be a hacker.

[lightdarkness]

He still got the score unjustly, so it's gone.

[female]

Yeah, I'm not going to add it to my thread. It's too subtle a high score to consider those two cheaters.

Fumbling and hitting a secret arrow or two is a lot different than hitting 100 secret arrows and having your scores skyrocket.

Just goes to show that no matter what, don't mash. You could AAA a song that you normally couldn't, and the score will be no good, because you fumbled. Accuracy > Comboing, no matter the scores result.

fiorentinj..

beh that thread was getting old and god knows everyone want to clean up from those evil bad guys before christmas. =/

It's like my first and last apparition in top 10 list. u.u

[eaglefan101]

well... he didnt hack scores... perse... but he IS a hacker. He likes to hack his acount name and lvl. He likes to use the account name 9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999... and son on. He always changes his account name... this post might be completely useless because he changes his account all the time. He spams all the time too. His name does NOT ocme up on the MP chat room.

wel if u missed 1 in that pic, then u must have hit a guaranteed miss

[igotrhythm]

Why is it that they always hack the easy songs? (More importantly, why the hell can't I AAA this thing? >_<)
