Being able to resubmit scores

[leonid]

How many people have experienced one of their best lucky scores not being recorded? Not a good experience.

Of course, there is unrecorded scores thread, but wouldn't it be nice if there is a button on the result screen that, when pressed, resubmits current score to the server again?

If this feature is applied, people can just wait for half an hour and then press the button to resubmit their unrecorded scores and replay data.

The button will be removed/disabled as soon as the score is successfully submitted and recorded.

Any thoughts about this one?

This has been discussed before. The main point that Tass made was that it could possibly implemented; however, they would need to think up of a way to prevent the same score from being recorded over and over again. Otherwise, someone could indefinitely increase credit count / grand total.

I think it's a good idea. I've had that happen a few too many times. x____x

Give each score a unique hash computed using the the total perfects/goods/average/boos/miss count and the player's grand total when the round was completed. When a score is submitted, the client should also submit a hash; the server should attempt to compute the hash, only using the player's current grand total instead of the client-side grand total; if they do not match OR if no hash was sent, record the score only if it is not a recently recorded score for that player and do not alter credit count/grand total.

Interesting idea, though I haven't had this problem in a while.
