Yesterday I had 259 points.
Today I only have 255!
These points are very hard-won; who on earth has taken it upon himself to remove them?! Anyone owning up?!
-
That's interesting - I'm pretty sure I lost one last week, but I didn't want to make a fuss, and I'm not really competitive any more. Anybody else having this problem?

According to your account, you loose 6 points.
-
It's all logged and you are an admin and can look it up.
The answer is: oko94
-
First of all, I'm sincerely sorry for that.
I'm shocked to learn that I am the cause of this trouble but I think I understand what happened.
I browse Auto Puzzles a lot on my smartphone and sometimes the connection is laggy : I have probably accidentally tapped on the "subtract" link a couple of times while a page wasn't loaded properly.
From now on I will stop using Auto Puzzles on my smartphone to prevent this incident from happening again.
Most of my points come from Carnut puzzles so of course I have nothing against him ! I have sent him a PM to apologize.
I also apologize to anyone who lost points because of me.
-
OK..thank you I found it.
Now, Carnut already got back his points. I saw SACO and other lost too.
My suggestion is that only one of us will restore them.
-
OK, I can see how it happened and won't hold it against you!

...and then no more smiting till February.
Some of this cases are just mistakes, because in the complete log you can see that the point was awarded and detracted right after, but in other cases they are just missing points!
-
Damn I would have never imagined that it happened so many times. Apologies to all victims. Fortunately they will all get their points back.
* feeling ashamed like hell * :-[
-
Don't worry, we all do mistakes.
One time, I was using a program to download Autopuzzles...that program was following each link in each page and you can't imagine the mess it caused because i was logged in as administrator!
Ultra fixed everything in that case...here seems to be much easier.
I'm going to post here the complete log of that days and each one of us can check what seems to be missing.
You all should check if there was a simple mistake (for example if the point was added and then deleted immediately) or if there was an explanation for that (looking at the date and time you should be able to look back into your posts and see if there was a reason for that).
Nobody will add or subctract any point untill we admins will figure out how many and to whom.
-
Yes I've had a look at the log too.
I already corrected the 4 oko94 took from me on 3-4/9 but I see he also took one away on 21/8 which I didn't notice as I was away on holiday then another one on 6/8 which I don't seem to have noticed at the time and one back on 13/5 which I never noticed either.
Curiously I also see PJ took one from me on 25/7, which seems odd as he doesn't appear to have given me one by mistake and then taken it away again, just knocked one off! Any ideas on that one PJ?
I suggest since he has produced the full list PJ should correct it all if he doesn't mind. I seem to be due 3 more, possibly 4 but going back to May when the problem seems to have started there are quite a number of corrections. Strange no-one seems to have noticed!

Please, don't stop using the site on your smart phone. Just be a bit more patient. ;-)
-
Carnut, I replied in that other topic...I came to the same conclusion regarding that point I took from you...there was no reason and oddly I got a new smartphone a week earlier!
I'll have a look today and try to post a report tonight.
-
Could it be possible to add a confirmation message box on the "add" and "subtract" links (like the one on the "notify" button) ? This could help prevent mistakes.
-
Don't worry about the two points that were subtracted from my account. I usually keep track of my points. I don't miss those.
-
Are you sure? According to the log, oko94 took 1 point on June 03, 2014 at 02:52:08 am with no reason and Grob did it too on June 15, 2014, 09:21:02 am.
Grob gave you 2 points the day before, so probably there was a reason (but I still have to check) but oko94 tokk a point from you 2 minutes after you gave him 1, so it can be a mistake.
-
Here are some preliminary reports:
In the following cases, there seems to be no doubts it's just a mistake and at the end you'll see the points we will restore.

In these cases, we can see that someone added 1 or more point by mistake and subtracted right after. There's nothing to fix here:

Grob gave you 2 points the day before, so probably there was a reason (but I still have to check) but oko94 tokk a point from you 2 minutes after you gave him 1, so it can be a mistake.
I don't say that there was no mistake, just that the total of my points is satisfactory. Sometimes when I miss a point, I ask the owner of the last puzzle solved by me, if he might have forgotten to grant me a point. Usually this solves the problem. And sometimes I got a point too many. I keep this in mind and balance it when I miss another point.
-
Ok, but there's at least 1 point that has to be added to your total.
Is there a way to look for all the posts by all the members at a given hour of a given day?
-
I reassigned the following points:
Carnut: 4 points (+4 by himself)
SACO: 6 points
Nicanary: 3 points
Paul Jaray: :'( :'(
mekubb: 2 points
Djetset, Amsterdam, Ray B, AlexFrance, Wendax: 1 point
I still have to get 2 for me and 1 is missing for Iluvatar...but I'll award him quite soon ;)

Yesterday, after solving NEH 3709 I had 173 points, and right now, without having solved any other puzzle, I'm at 174. May an admin please check the logs and remove the extra point ? Thanks in advance.

Only just noticed your request and note you now have 183 points..
Did anyone correct the discrepancy?
Frequently I'm in the middle of moving a Solved puzzle and awarding points when I get distracted and on returning I think "Now did I award that point or didn't I"? Convinced I hadn't, I award it, but it's possible I had so it's been given twice. I'll have to start checking more thoroughly!
So do you have 1 point too many or not?!
-
Well, meanwhile I've made a complete survey of the puzzles I've solved and I have 3 or 4 points in excess. I haven't got the results at hand right now but stay tuned, I'll post them tonight or during the weekend.
-
According to my analysis I have solved 180 puzzles so far, including NEH 3689 that owed my 2 points, hence a grand total of 181 points. As I have currently 185 points, please subtract 4 points.

If you insist!
I've done it but I'm sure you'll make them up again pretty quickly..

Thanks !

A tip of the hat to oko94. :thumbsup:

I'm back at 185 points, but this time all genuine and deserved. ;D
