A question

Subject: A question Mon Feb 08, 2010 9:27 am

i just got a high score on the timezone machine while it was offline, anna said it will register itself when the machine goes online again (here's hoping, doubt i'll get 860k on customizer anytime soon again >_>) but yeh just checking to see if this is true.

If you have done it while it was offline.. Sadly it will not be updated.. only updated if its online... registered or not

Pretty much since if you register your card, your scores also goes bye bye.

Its not random lol.. As long the machines is offline that day.. scores will not be recorded... Unless its online and you play it unregistered and then register your card... all songs you played when you werent registered will be recorded... because it was online...
In summary.. No net play machine on that day = No scores will be recorded no matter what...

heres basically what i did as a test
3 cards, all registered
A -> played offline customizer (no previous record)
B -> played offline first step (no previous record)
C -> played offline electro (i beat my online record)

then i played all 3 at at online machine, PP
a few hours later, i double checked against my tracker and,
A+B did NOT update, but C updated

it may either be random, or has something to do with -already having a record- online

thats just my observation anyway, youll have to extensive testing to figure it out ..

heres that bemanistyle post : http://www.bemanistyle.com/forum/643657-post19.html

yeah my quote here supports the 'already having a record' thing, thats all i can think of

Hmm that is interesting... I just remembered playing Sin PP for someone offline and as soon it he playing on an online machines.. score was updated..
He played at the same machine.. different machine may be different.. oh and he played Sin PP before

so you still need to play it to count?

Most likely... but in kissycat's case, I'm sure he has played HB set LOTS of times... so I don't know anymore..

Well, my higher scores didn't get updated once so they don't count and have to try again.

About the thing that I said about the score updating.

I played SIN PP, and I attained a new high score while it was offline.
When I checked a few days later on the internet, the score had updated.

That's all the info.

update

i guess if you beat your pb on the machine then you'll be able to upload your score again.
however, your new pb doesn't update until you chuck your card in again once the plat crew's up.

Hmm... so pretty much, try not to overwrite your scores?

CONFIRMED

@tomoyo
Quite the opposite, depending on how you put it.
It was about time i stopped bragging/venting so i won't mention it, but it you definitely must, go check popular scores. These scores were updated once i put the card in when it was online.
