Sorry for the delay, I've been busy with all sorts of stuff.

Since whatever happened happened over a decade ago, there's no point in going over it, so I've re-enabled your account for stat submissions.

Leaderboard Disputes / Re: Why is Sonicandamy still banned?
« on: February 10, 2021, 04:53:01 pm »
This was a long time ago, and presumably things have cooled off since then.

I've unbanned the original sonicandamy account and associated IP bans.

News and Updates / Registration is back up
« on: February 10, 2021, 04:50:59 pm »
I set up a new anti-spam system for registration, so user registrations are now re-enabled.

Some notes:
  • It turns out SMF forums doesn't currently support IPv6 properly, so the IPv6 DNS records have been removed for now.
  • As a reminder, if you have an old password, consider changing it, since TSC now uses https. I recommend using unique passwords per website. A password manager such as KeePassXC helps here.

News and Updates / Submissions are back up
« on: December 01, 2020, 08:53:29 pm »
I finally figured out the underlying issue that I noticed when trying to migrate to the new VPS previously. (It was some difference in how MariaDB 10.3 handled a particular query compared to MySQL 5.x.)

Submissions are back up. Registration is still down for now; I will re-enable it later this week after setting up an updated spam filter.

We had a somewhat extended server outage (around a month or so). We weren't able to get the server back up until last week due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

The TSC site has now been moved to my new VPS. Besides improved performance, the new VPS also supports TLS 1.2 and HTTP/2.0. I'll be adding automatic https redirection momentarily, but for now, make sure you use https://www.soniccenter.org/ instead of http.

NOTE: Since we now have https, I highly recommend changing your login password.

Stat submissions and new user registrations are temporarily disabled due to some issues on the new server that I need to fix.

I'm not really sure. We currently don't have a good system for recording ban reasons; I'll have to check backlog and figure out why.

Click the "Pick a Skin" link on the sidebar.

Okay I see what you mean here.

Shows ring stats: http://www.soniccenter.org/members/sonicandinuyasha/sonic_boom_fire_&_ice/bosses/sticky_situation/boss

It's probably an issue with DirGen due to the category ordering. I'll see if this can be fixed.

EDIT: Simply rerunning DirGen fixed it. I guess that works.

I see comments for your ring submissions in both Sonic Boom 3DS games here.

Beef / Re: 06 Ring Charts

Super late, but: I found the Mission 14 (Sonic) Scores chart [3135] was incorrectly linked to Rings Overalls [3171]. This has been removed, and may help fix the problem on the next rings submission.

Fixed this. The ordering was set incorrectly.

Changes will take effect when the next ring statistic is submitted.

I tried to recalculate the points stat but it didn't work for some reason. I'm probably missing something.

Will try again tonight or tomorrow.

Sorry, I've been caught up with some stuff this weekend. I'll take a look at it sometime this week, hopefully.

No response, and you proceeded to "0p" a bunch of other games.

You've been suspended from stats. If you want any chance of getting unsuspended, you'd better reply here.

There's probably some "hidden" charts that are interfering. I'll take a look this weekend.

Leaderboard Disputes / draftykranks19: Sonic 2 stats
« on: June 15, 2016, 12:42:09 am »
I noticed you submitted a bunch of Sonic 2 stats. Many of your scores either match the existing #1, or are 10x as much, like on http://www.soniccenter.org/rankings/sonic_2/scores/oil_ocean_2/knuckles . Care to say how you managed to do this?

EDIT: You've managed to get 0p in the entire game. Uh huh, sure.

18
Looks like a "typo".

I've also noticed many of his other scores are either matching previous #1s, or are within 1000.

RealSonicKings, can you verify how you've obtained these scores?

Post 99:59:99 instead of 0:00:00.

Alternatively, do a run of m1 and post that time instead.

Done. See the other thread.

Hey, guess what? I recalculated the SUDLC Total Scores! (As well as SA2 M4 Total Times due to the recent addition of Mission 4.)

I also resubmitted your actual scores for SUDLC, so the charts are no longer ridiculously broken.

Check it again. I reran the "directory generator" script, so it should be there.

Registration is re-enabled. I added some more blacklists for HTTP POST requests, which should help. If anyone gets an error page when attempting to submit a stat or post on the forums, please contact me on IRC and/or email: gerbilsoft@gerbilsoft.com .

Forcing a recalculation on several charts is painful due to the way it's set up. Extending the maximum length of a textbox is easy.

...I just thought of something: The suspended stats script does this. Maybe I can add an interface that lets me enter all the class numbers to recalculate, and then have the suspended stats script do that.

Something was wrong with the suspended stats processing script, but it seems to have figured out what it was supposed to do now. Sitewide points are back to normal.

Ugh, I'm not going to be able to do anything regarding user registration tonight, so here's what I'm going to do.

  • Stat submissions are re-enabled. (I did not delete the bogus stats, since those should be kept for "historical" purposes.)
  • User registration is disabled. I'll re-enable it once I improve user registration security.

Okay, so I temporarily disabled submissions for now. When I get home tonight, I'm going to remove all of this moron's stats from the database directly. Do note that this will include around 100 stats submitted afterwards, so they'll need to be resubmitted. I'll post all the stats that need to be resubmitted after the database maintenance is finished.

It seems our friends at drexel are still using avast, or norton with their windows 8. which has distrupted our little competition.
>implying we use Windows

The actual issue was hosted sites running old versions of WordPress that got compromised. (Also one site had a pirated version of a WordPress plugin that contained CryptoPHP.)

News and Updates / TSC back up after unplanned downtime
« on: January 19, 2015, 10:28:55 pm »
Hi all,

Due to some security issues on the host system, we had to take the server down for extended maintenance. The security issues have been fixed, and TSC's back online.
