Score Recording Bug on Jewels

Post by TStodden »

Just thought you like to know, some type of bug occured & lost my 12,8xx score (I can't remember the last 2 digits, which would have taken over the lead) on Jewels...

Any possible debugging on that would be helpful...

Just so you know, I'm a Master Jeweler on Bejeweled 2 (the Pop Cap sequal to this game).

I also noticed when I was playing Jewels today that when the game was over it said something about not keeping the score. I only got six thousand something. Damn, I need to get back up there with my score so I can beat Roem. :mwaha:

I ran into that once myself... the only way I've gotten to make the score pass through is by clicking the 'save' button on the game before running out of moves. It's something in the Flash itself, though not sure what...

When it goes "Game over man." I notices it does that. The trick is to do what Roem and what I've learned is to save it before it goes "Game Over man.". :laugh:

No. This happens when the game is still running. I have never hit a wall. Never had a chance to.

Now that's something I haven't run into at all... if I can find the ipb version of the game, I'll put that in and see how it goes... if I can find the thing :p Been having a bit of trouble tracking down IPB games where the IPBarcade site is down :p

Found a different version of Jewels and a few other games I'll test tonight... well, it's the same Jewels game, just with different score passing... hopefully better score passing :p

Does this mean my high score will be dropped? :lol:

No... scores will remain, just the game itself will be switched to an updated version that hopefully works right :p

Ok, I put it up, but I'm not sure if it's working or not... only way I'll know is if someone beats the highscore... or takes note of their personal highscore before playing... beats that highscore... and notes if it updated on the highscores page. This version of I'm using, the score doesn't pass the same, so it's hard to tell if it's going through or not and I don't have time to play that long of a game of Jewels to take high score at the moment :lol:

BUT, I tried another game under the same different system (Jet Pac) and the score passed perfect, but it doesn't actually say when you finish that the score was passed... it did however update in the arcade, so I THINK it works... just needs to be tested by someone beating the high score :lol:

Roem, I just tried Jewels, and it said something about "If you're a registered user your score will be saved." But the thing is it never saved the high score here.

Did you beat your previous high score though? Only your highest score is saved, so to find out if it works, you have to beat your highest score. It won't prompt you like the other games saying the score passed... it just does it automatic, so to know if this works, ya gotta beat your personal best or beat the all time high score...

D'oh I didn't. But when a new game started that message was still there.
