    You'll have to wait for Luke to get up - it's 4.30am out here - and he removed all the bad times off the leaderboards before... I not sure what the process is, plus I'm pretty tired to find out and I may do it wrong from lack of sleep. I hope that's ok by you :)

    That'd be fine. When my device is finished charging, I may go for it again, so please tell Luke not to remove any new score with a replay. In my local score tab, there is the 31.59 with no replay (before the update) followed by a 31.84 with replay. If Luke deletes the 31.59, will my device sync properly and attempt to send the new one with a replay, even though there may still be a shorter time locally? Sorry to keep bothering you about this. Eventually, if I manage do E cleanly (i.e. go through the hole), I'll pm in order to have the previous one deleted, since the new run will most likely be a longer duration.

    Not sure what would happen with local scores after a delete on the leaderboard.

    It turns out that it won't be necessary to delete the previous score, because I just passed my own best time by a fraction of a second, so now a replay will be posted. Hopefully it won't get deleted before Luke reads this. Thanks anyway for helping out.

    Just catching up on the forum now after having a lazy sunday, so mnay new posts. Anyway, I would have had to ask you to request me to remove yout time on the OpenFeint forums so I could confirm your username... anyway, looks like it doesn't matter now. Well done. I will have to have a look at the leaderboards to see how people are doing with replays.

    It seems all the platforming levels have atleast a couple of replays in the top 25 now. Some levels are starting to be filled up.

    Oh, and sorry to hear about the untimely demise of your iphone.

    Question.

    If I were to play offline, would my score later be submitted to leaderboards along with the replay?

    And can you compare two replays? Like let's say I want to watch my replay with a friends ghost car at the same time. Is there a way to do that?

    Can you only download ghosts to race if you have friends on OF?

    I beleive that if you play offline, your score and replay will be stored locally and uploaded later... but I havn't actually tested that personally.

    No, if you go to OpenFeint and find the leaderboards, if you see a filmstrip icon next to a time, then you can click on it and download the replay, view it, and then race against it if you choose.

    Note that only best times uploaded to the leaderboards with at least version 1.3 will have replays, but people are currently slowly replacing the best times.

    I love the replays - they provide a way to view other people's strategy. Without replays, I would never have found the clever way to quickly complete Impossible E. :p

    A Time Trial Hard Track C gold replay just went up (#5), for anyone who wants to try ghost racing that track. :cool:

    Edit:

    Luke- Just beat you by 0.1s on Time Trial Hard track B. You're #21 and I'm #20. :)

    I managed to just get 14th place on Just Learning A in pretty spectacular form with a bit of updsidedown driving, and passing the finish line on my side to get under 20 seconds.

    It doesn't seem right to try and beat that now, I don't want to overwrite my re-play on the server;)

    Thank you,

    many many congratulations for your attention! I think that lots of companies, not only in this business, have to learn from TA a trick or, more probably two in terms of customer satisfaction. Sorry for my english, bye.

    Today I decided to roll back the backups and find the date where this happened, which was the 12.2.10... It'll be good to find out what caused this problem and rectify it as well.

    I have an issue:) while trying to beat my impossible d record i was hoping to challange someone:) but after some time and plenty of retrys... Openfeint says me that i
    am offline(( this happened because:
    - airplane mode on
    - wifi auto off if you not using it a while...

    So guys, dont play in airplane mode:) maybe its possible to keep wifi on while users in the game?

    We found out what the problem is - some weird gl thing to do with glclear - and it's fixed now. The game is back to been super super smooth again :)

    We will be submitting a minor update that addressed this issue. Thank you for pointing this out :)

    I could have sworn I saw something about a lite being released soon. My eyes must have lied since I searched and searched but couldn't find anything.

    eyes are such dishonest things... don't trust them;)

    We have talked a lot about the comming paid level pack. We have a rough set of new levels, just need to make them look beautiful, make some camera paths, play test, and add them to the game. Still quite a bit of work there actually.
