Hi, I checked the leaderboard this afternoon and I see additional matches have been played from when the tournament ended? From when I checked this afternoon up till now I see the match count has increased some more, so whatever is happening it seems to be still ongoing. I’m not seeing any extra matches in the “Tournament Results” tab though. Are there currently extra matches being played or is it unintentional?
Yeah…confirmed…strange things seems to be afoot.
Hi @kobus-v-schoor, the leader board has been temporarily fixed now but the values might be of again. We are looking into finding a permanent fix for this issue soon. For now we will make sure the leader board is correct by updating it manually.
Thanks
Just want to verify here @siphumelele.dlamini - currently, the leaderboard is not supposed to be updating, at all, right?
Since the next actual tournament is only in June?
Hi @demaniak, yes this is correct. There is a bug in the leaderboard query that is picking up new matches. The team is working on fixing the bug.
Ah ok, cool and thanks.
So I’ll just stop looking at the leader board for now
Hello everyone.
We are now looking at the various issues raised within the forum and on github and making the relevant changes.
We are looking to release a final build of the starter on 1st June with a code freeze being put in place until the next tournament.
Kind regards

I assume the text “Spawn a cyber truck at lane 4, block 76 next round” in the game rules is just a typo and we can place a cyber truck on any visible (and invisible?) block? I didn’t see anything in the code which suggests the restriction to that particular block. Ref:
Hello @marvijo that is correct. The 4 76 was just to illustrate how the command is used. So USE_TWEET 3 750 would place a cyber truck at lane 3 block number 750.
Random question:
For the coming tournament, will we still run mirrored seeds?
I have some seeds that has extreme advantage to one side and I’m not sure after the last tournament if this was implemented.
Running a seed with player A and B and then swapping them as mentioned here:
This would really be the most fair approach. I have some seeds where my lead bot wins by 300 tiles and there’s absolutely nothing I can analyze that would change the outcome for the back. Even using Trucks in the best way possible (Though this is debatable, They are fairly handy)
Even playing a weaker bot. Some seeds are just lost and interference is fairly pointless.
So wondering if we are still playing Dual matches
Hello @WillieTheron yes the plan for the 2nd tournament is to still run the 2 matches for proven fairness
Awesome, Cause Im having psycological warfare here.
Theres not many cases, But this will help a lot… Must just make sure my car does not break on its way to the track away… Meh…
