Score submission keeps failing for me. I quit without submitting, but there doesn't seem to be a way to submit scores retroactively. I tried beating the episode in question again but it still won't submit, and I tried a third time but it still won't submit, and I'd really like to not have to beat this one (and improve my score) a fourth time. Does anyone know if you can retroactively submit your scores? Otherwise I'm just going to leave the game open and keep trying periodically until the score goes through, which is annoying.

I've also had this problem with a particular episode, X16, which failed once and I left opened for hours, periodically trying to submit it to no avail. After exiting without submission, the score was still there seemingly submitted, but only I could, and still can, see the run, the rest can't. It has also messed up the boards for me, since it should be 0th but it actually appears 1st, and I can't see the supposed 0th score (the global leaderboards go from 1st to 20th instead of the usual 0th to 19th).

I improved my score a day later, and the same happened. Other people have had similar issues with some particular episodes, this is the only one I've had trouble with.

Hmm, all right. This is C-12. I've given up on submitting for now, but if my score gets much higher 1) it will be hard for me to top it and 2) I will be inching towards the bottom of the Top 20. I guess I'll just keep going for now. Thanks Eddy!

Just had the same trouble with A-10. Bettered my score, got an insane run in that level where you drop down into the mine walls to get the gold, whole thing without hesitating once, no safety jumps, just boop boop boop boing boop boop, hole in one... totally aced all the other levels, no dice. Tried again later, got an even better run, though this time the mile walls/gold level gave me loads of trouble to the point where I was screaming! Finally beat it and got an even better score. Error submitting score, try again?

Try again?

Try again?

Try again?

Half an hour later... Try again?

WHAT? ARE YOU F<redacted>G S<redacted>G ME? I PUNCHED MY KEYBOARD! I SCREAMED LIKE THE DAMNED!

My internet is fine and I can see replays just fine, it's so infuriating >:(

I'm off to kick a baby or something.

So today everything seemed all clear, I posted a new run and got 6th place on A-11. Went back to A-10 with renewed morale, did even better than last time, and still, computer says no.

I realize running a game like this with an online server is hard and maintenance needs to happen and shit happens and wotnot, but man alive! This is really killing my love, a love that has had me glued to this game.

I mean, there were server problems at the game launch, things were a bit wonky, I expected that, but this really fouls the water for me. Why one specific episode? Why when everything else works fine? I can even view runs from that episode. So why does it hate me?!

AND WHY CAN'T IT JUST STORE THE RUN UNTIL THE CONNECTION IS GOOD AGAIN?

Then I start to think, you know, why even bother? With the community seemingly evaporated and no-one watching, even in a metaphorical sense, why make runs or spend hours polishing and playtesting maps? They are just messages in a bottle flung into space, seen by three or four people and then lost in the maze of the web.

I also just ran into this again on E-04. Gave it a few days and came back to it, same problem. Played through five other episodes with only a slight hitch here or there before the scores went up.

Also, Sendy, I would play more usermaps but I have a ton of trouble pulling maps down from the server. Not sure if it's a problem on my end or the server's, but it's discouraged me from making/playing maps for the time being. Focusing on my all-gold runs for now, but I'm around.
