Ah yeah that would require a lot of doing, some kind of mod perhaps provides that feature (technically the forum software is completely moddable), though it's not anything that's available by default. Not really a lot of options in general, which explains the rather large modding community around forum software, and even some of the mods I had to install to provide some seemingly simple/obvious features

I try to avoid mods when possible though, since they make updating more complicated (or in the case of the wiki even permanently broke a bunch of stuff that used to work, due to an impossible update path...).

I noticed the link in the scoreboard (https://www.gridsagegames.com/cogmind/scores/) to the Beta 10 archive doesn't work.

The link that's given there is https://www.gridsagegames.com/cogmind/scores/archive-200915-220317.html,
but the actual link should be https://www.gridsagegames.com/cogmind/scores/archive-200915-220318.html (replacing the last number (7) by "8"). (Also I'm 15th place there, yay!)

Ah whoops, thanks for the heads up, apparently had a little typo there when resetting the leaderboards. Sure had been a while since I did that xD

It should get changed to the correct link tomorrow when the next update is generated.

Also nice job on 15th! Surprisingly my best only got me up to 34 in Beta 10... (although it appears I only did five full runs in all of Beta 10--for most of that period I was doing my runs in Beta 11 prereleases to test new features/content )

It seems the leaderboards, the run database and Dataminer are not time travel proof.

Relatively recently, i ended a run (114) with my system time set before run #111's end, and this caused it to appear between run 110 and run 111 instead of between run 113 and 115.
This seems to also have messed with the Dataminer database :
As can be seen from the "complete run database" (ctrl+f perseus), i currently have a total of seven Beta 11.1 runs :

But according to Dataminer, i only have six (i don't know how to include specific settings in the link, if that a thing) :

The one where i went "back in time" is the one missing from that set.

(The "time travel" scoresheet is located between the two volatile ones in the run database.)

Unrelated, i've found a duplicated scoresheet in the complete run database : (ctrl+f "8141")

Indeed not, that's not something that it's built for.

Can't say anything about Dataminer, since that's not my project, though yeah it's based on the available run data so would make sense that it would have the same issue.

Yeah that happens sometimes (and on a much bigger scale), usually automatically fixed when the leaderboard database is wiped at some point for a full recalculation. Maybe this is a different case, but since it's just one example not really worried about it.
