Erroneous scoring
-
@dan-mitchell I am looking for personal stats..for example previous history me 1 op 2 etc total games played 2 timer 5 min ..stuff like that ..but global stats is interesting
-
@betterlate1-0 I've now migrated to https://www.lexulous.com/v2/ It has more of what you're looking for under the 'my stats' section. Check it out!

@dan-mitchell Pop-up box said "you lost with a score of ___ to ___, but the higher score was mine. And my rating dropped accordingly. Yes, it was my clock that ran down, but that shouldn't mean I lost if my score was higher!
-
@phoenix50 I hate to break this to you (you might be a new player), but if you run out of time then you lose the game, regardless of whether you were in the lead or not. Nothing unusual here. Keep an eye on the timer in future and play a time limit you're more comfortable with.
-
@phoenix50 Dan Mitchell is right. If you run out of time in a timed game you lose, no matter what the score is. It's been this way ever since, even in the old Lexulous (and that is the whole point of having a timer).

@thatguythere202 it is right to run out of time, then lose that is why there is timer..arg still waiting 120 seconds

@thatguythere202
This must be the only game where high score might not win! Ugh! (Think football, basketball, etc., which are also timed) -
@phoenix50 I see your point (I think). But think also about competitive chess, where there is a timer (and when the real die-hards play, sometimes a very short timer). In many, probably most cases, the player who runs out of time loses.
-
@thatguythere202 Don't need a timer if you do not want to use the timer.. but these are timed games and not chess. so, the timer is set .If you don't exceed the time if score says u win then do, otherwise you lose.
-
@betterlate1-0 Of course this is not chess; but the same principles apply in terms of the timer. It runs out, you lose. If you don't like that then play untimed games, or games with a very long timer (like 60/10)
-
@phoenix50 I think the key point here is that each player has their own separate timer to use as they wish. What you're talking about could be potentially interesting, for example if there was just 10 minutes total for the game, and each player has a period of say 10 seconds to play their move. Then when time's up, highest score wins. I guess that's where you got a little confused, thinking it worked more like that.
BTW, there's another site I use where there's simply a timer for each move, think it's about 15 seconds, then at the end, highest score wins. I'll link it in case you want to check it out:

@thatguythere202 we are not debating that..I just said u lose if timer goes out
