Some record got replaced AFTER the system announcement/post about leaderboard being tallied, and sts consider that newly made record as the last winner????
such a competence, sts, really dissapointed with it... i think you need to learn wording your post, to avoid ambiguous meaning

Yes, timed run got taken after the message but obviously you did count those who took it after the message. As a result the message was a lie.

In the system message it said that leaderboards can still be modified but that doesn't count towards the hereby ended season. Unfortunately, I didn't take a screenshot of the System message. Nevertheless, it can't be true that players can't even trust in System messages, can it? So there has to be done something about it, the granted banners should be moved to the record holders at lb closure.
Found screenshot in my camera roll, 5:38 my time , so it must have been 10:38 Austin time, pls check who had timed records at that time and award banners correctly pls.
Since yesterday I am having issues posting screenshots from my ipad on forum, it says this jpeg has wrong file extension??

If I'm not mistaken timed runs are a leaderboard too, right?

My sister was holding record on leaderboard before fix. After fix her name was gone but she got banner. Does it mean if you are in lb you'll still get s9 banner for time runs? Wtf@.@?

When leaderboard got closed Player X had timed record; afterwards Player Y took the record --> Player Y got banner while Player X didn't

If I am not mistaken, this is about the pure record in Jurn Woods. It was held by one team, then the system message popped up, people stopped running. Long after that (30 minutes at least, probably more) another team took the record.
Clarification by a dev is needed here for sure.

It means that once they tallied the points/records, even if you take the place after that, you would not get the banner for season 9. Those who held the records during the tally got the banners.

when the tally started it was clearly said that the leaderboard was closed while the tally was being done .... so those that held the lb BEFORE the tally should get banners. Anyone DURING the tall that took records shouldnt get a banner ... anyhow htats how i understood it.
I had a friend that got on lb during the tally, and they didnt receive a banner for season 9.

They got the record before the announcement, then around 1hr after announcement, a different team got a new record. The team that got the record before announcement didn't receive banner

The query we run to determine leaderboards takes about 2 hours. We choose to keep the game up while we do this so we don't impact your play time.
In this case, some changes did occur after we thought they would not. We'll try to do better next time, but these leaderboard results will stand as granted.
Apologies for the confusion,

So players that goes after lb fix will still have banners? Sorry Gary but its not fair and bad move. Especially for those who fought for their spots with other players during season 9.

The point is when you say that leaderboard is fixed now players stop running but then another team takes record later and banners are gone..
BTW we also got ss with record with time on it, if that doesn't help then idk

Timed leaderboards are dominated by only a few people and every group that offers a spot for somebody new who works very hard on this map and whose greatest wish is to keep the record to get a banner and finally after lb closure has a record and parties, feels very sorry and sad to learn that Devs messed up and don't want to correct this important issue. Can you feel how that feels? To those who have several maps, it doesn't matter, but to those who faught hard and gave all, how big is the disappointment?

Yes we are not complaining for ourselves even tho we were part of the team that held record because we held others too. But others didn't and got "scammed".

We dont want to give banners to everyone, sts just failed at that point and could fix it but obviously doesn't want to.

This explanation directly contradicts your own thread in Announcements:
Although they can still be posted to, no further leaderboard effort will count this season.
System message, special thread in Announcement, and then all of a sudden something entirely different happens. This just sounds completely wrong to me.

Read my first quote:

Not a direct contradiction. Unexpected variances in timing.
Any time there are client updates, there are a lot of moving pieces.
This was a big update, and the leaderboard transition did not go very smoothly.
We're sorry, we'll try to do better next time.

That feeling when you finally achieved something and being assured of it with an announcement feels like a scam, they should have not stop to do better runs instead. A sorry won't suffice.
Next time you do announcements like that, close the leaderboard literally

I agree next time the system message came LB should have been off, 2 hours a heart breaking window

Whether it's one or more records, when the system says "leaderboard is now being tallied, No further leaderboard efforts will count for this season." it is obvious that if you are on leaderboards you should get rewarded a banner.

This is not about eggs and inconsistencies, it's about fairness. STS clearly said one thing and then did the exact opposite. Does that look ok to you?

Yes, fairness, this is why I am posting here, not for myself btw I got 5 lb banners this season.

In season 8 Leo got a time run banner even though her name was not even in the LB for entire season. At least 10 players confirmed that they checked LB at least 1000 times before the season ended and no sight of Leo at all, but Leo still got a banner. So you guys shouldn't be surprised this time.

No, it doesn't look okay to me. However, this is why I said prepare for inconsistencies.

In the past we have been ambiguous about when leaderboards shut off to avoid this type of confusion.
Unfortunately, in our efforts to be more communicative, some folks got unexpectedly dropped from the leaderboards..
We get that this was not right, so we are going to grant these people their rewards this afternoon.
I'll update you when this has been completed.
