Just a quick update to the GB Highscore Board System.
In the last update I announced that you are now able to retrieve the top 10 scores from a scoreboard from within your game.
This functionality has now been updated to include the ability to retrieve the top 10 scores from a scoreboard based on time. You can now get the top 10 scores from the past day(24 hours), past week(7 days), past month(30.5 days). To do this you would just optionally add &phs_topmode=daily, &phs_topmode=weekly, or &phs_topmode=monthly to the GET request of topscores.php.
The templates.zip download has also been updated, although it does not include specific examples of the newly added feature. You can read how to do it in the comments of the retrievetopscorestemplate.mfa.
ALSO
Have a flash arcade game or an idea for a flash arcade game that may need more than one score board? Well..
Arcade games can now be linked to multiple score boards. Just select multiple score boards from the list when you're submitting or editing a flash arcade game. The first score boards top 10 scores will show up by default, with buttons to the other boards. Click a button and that boards top 10 scores will show up. (right now if you click a button it will reload the whole page. we will be working on some jquery javascript so that the whole page doesnt reload when you click a button)
Any other features you would like to see added? Improvements? Changes? Leave a comment! :D

Great work Cecil
Awesome updates Cecil!
Cool! I don't understand the second one though. Like do you mean an arcade game with more than one high score table could squeeze in as 1 out of the 5 we're allowed to have?
I suppose I'll check out the template. You know how I love them < :Heartmph:
the second one means that you can display the top 10 scores of more than one board on your games page. that little sidebar that says "Top Scores" on your flash games page, now is able to contain multiple boards. it displays one of them at a time but includes buttons that will show the other ones in the sidebar.
my game #Puzzle uses this feature.

also you are only limited to 5 so retarded people dont just make tons of boards that theyll never use. if you reach your 5 board limit just ask an admin to raise your limit. we've raised viewtifuls limit to 20 i beleive cause he keeps releasing arcade games with score boards.
oh and i know you do :Heartsuperior:
Oh I see now, cool!
Thanks for the info, too. I'll never know when I might need an extra spot
For the Arcade, are we only allowed to have 5 games with high score boards? Why not a higher number? I don't think anyone will abuse it, and if they do, take it away
I wonder if GB could offer unlimited score boards for a small donation from the member who needs more. Just to help cover the costs of the server and such.
Could that donation be covered by GB points?
as cecil said, if you need more we will gladly raise your limit
in fact im feelin quite generous. 5 extra boards for everyone! lol
LOL not a good idea Jeff, then everyone would just use mochi boards. The limit is just an anti spam measure and will be removed for anyone who needs it gone.
I feel something should be a privilege for GB points :Heartsmile:
Of course that's because I'm the top contributor though...
