    BAD SCORE!!!

    This is not fair, I fowled up once, and I combo'd alot (well, for a beginner) and I got a CRAPPY SCORE. there is no way this is right, I've done WAY worse before and got a way better score, this is BS.

    Thanks for the screenshot. I am able to see that I didnt embed the font for a couple of the text lines. Will fix that right away.

      I_AM_WINNAR was nice enough to hack the hi-scores (8031337)on all of the levels. Luckily we record IP addresses and will be seeking that his ISP drop him as a customer due to illegal actions. We removed his entries on all levels.

                I'm glad to see the young bard go. it was frustrating seeing his name at the top all the time. unless he is superhuman.
                its also nice to see some good posts go completely off topic on the thread. lol

                    I'm sorry, I didn't realize going to a simple url in my browser was illegal.

                    "*EDIT* - "Look, I got myself in trouble with AOL!""
                    *REAL EDIT* - "Look, AOL doesn't actually care! Thats why nothing has happened to me!"

                    Here, I'll link it once again, because everyone must know this wayyy cool "hack!"

                    YEAH! AWESOME!

                    Why don't you just fix it by adding a check from where the query is coming from before you insert it into the table? Geez.

                    This is far from rocket science, and far from "hacking."

                    Oooh, PHP variables, hacking! Oh me, oh my!

                        hmm... well.... well.... well..... this is quit a site to see... how someone could actually just sit and examine everything to know what did what in the url bar.... and if you didnt earn the score but still got it up on the highscore list then you HACKED...

                          Actually, learning the variable names took only a minute or so.
                          I didn't earn the score, but I didn't "hack" it either.
                          People throw around the word "hack" too much. Maybe if I "hacked" into the MySQL server, and manually used an INSERT query into the scores table, you could call it hacking.
                          Although simply using a GET query from your browser by typing a URL and hitting enter in the address bar to a public PHP file with certain variables is far from hacking.

                          By the way, the word is "sight."

                          KTHX!


                          Oh, maybe I should add this for good measure.

                          Dear SotN,

                          No.



                          Love,
                          NOT REALLY TEH WINNAR.
