    Default Leaderboards will be cleaned up soon

    We recently plugged an exploit that has led to some silly times coming up on the Leaderboards. Just a head's up that we will be cleaning up the Leaderboards soon and the exploiters have been banned.

    As a reminder, if you hear about something that sounds too good too be true, it probably is. Especially if all you need to do is give someone or a website your username and password... or download and install some program to your computer. Never, ever give away your password - you are just inviting everything on your account to be stolen. As for a download, well it is just installing a virus, or worse, on your machine. Lastly, if you abuse an exploit, expect to have your accounts banned.

    Thanks for those who gave us the head's up about this issue.

    Sam, I'm confused with the cleaning up part. Are you guys just going to wipe the times completely, or are you restoring the times previous to this hack? It would be unfair to the second place people who had an actual time if it was a complete wipe. Tell me you have records of the top 5 runs.

    Good point.. Devs must tell us for how further they'll gonna cleanse LB.


    but doubt they will wipe everything... if so, Our high and mighty Canop still WINS(of which he mainly do hacks/exploits to porpusely surpass/erase those legit players)

    What do you mean when talking about "exploiting the leader board"?

    The offending accounts were banned, which should mean leaderboards will be recalculated as though those characters never existed.
