I'd like to post some facts here. As a member of saolei.net and an old minesweeper who knows much about MSinfo, a further explain about the mess is my responsibility.
1. to the members of saolei.net who still care about this:
why Damien lost this 10.25 in his database? In the old days, every player hand in their records by Emailing to Damien, or put the replay into their own profile and post to Guestbook. so Damien must be too busy and too upset to deal with so many posts and Emails. Shen-Jia Zhang mentioned this mess in the forum(see the lastest reply of
http://www.minesweeper.info/forum/viewt ... ?f=9&t=264), and now this site has register page(
http://www.minesweeper.info/members/register.php) and administrators to check the videos uploaded, records are shown on the ranking automatically, just like
http://saolei.net.
If this is a mistake, it's a mistake that Damien is not a sage.
2. to Damien:
why YXY never emailed again to complain about this mistake? Because YXY thought you ignored his email and felt emailing you again was useless, so his complain was never emailing you again. Some members of saolei.net thought "Damien ignored the email of a TOP10 player, so he didn't care about saolei.net, and we don't need to hand in our records". I know it's not true. It's a sad misunderstanding. For the member of saolei.net I suggest you read 3.
3. to saolei.net:
why Damien didn't renew YXY's records? Some of you thought then "It must because Damien will fall off TOP10 of MSinfo after put up YXY's records." Once I made a joke mention about this to my friends, it's not proper. My fault.
Some even thought Damien kept some racialism about saolei.net. Oh come on! As far as I'm concerned, Damien is not this case, the two who was once in the QQ group of saolei.net, Kamil and EWQMinesweeper, are not this case.
Damien hate YXY...Oh my god, what the hell one will hate another who emailed only once?
OK, here is the true reason. Check the link

If I get permission to copy scores, I will."
So why YXY's latest records is not on the ranking? YXY didn't email Damien and told him "Yes, you can paste my new records on MSinfo." so Damien has no permission about this.
4. to Damien and EWQMinesweeper:
the reason why a lot of the players from saolei.net never upload their score, is because of YXY's score is not on the ranking. Mentioned EWQMinesweeper is just because you talked about this topic with me sometime in this forum. They think if this issue is unsettled, they won't upload their replays.
Does YXY want to upload his record now? It's a mistery for me. Maybe never. I hope the members of saolei.net upload their replays to MSinfo, whatever YXY's opinion is. It's your personnal affairs.
5. to Damien:
The common Chinese don't care about "permission". Once I ask somebody, would you mind me put your replay in my WR list? He doesn't reply me, and one of the administrators of saolei.net told me, never mind this, who cares? So I put the replay in my profile again. For the old members of saolei.net, they will be happy if their records are copied by MSinfo. YXY do knows there are a lot of people reminding you to renew his ranking, and he never prevent them (including me
http://www.minesweeper.info/forum/viewt ... ?f=9&t=260), so proper ways are:
a. add YXY's video directly without his permission. That's ok in our minesweeper culture.
b. somebody of saolei.net ask YXY if he will be angry that MSinfo put his records on the ranking, yes or not? I guess he will say xxxxxx. Whatever the answer, issue is solved.
c. YXY email Damien for a user account, and upload his records. Now everything is settled.
I strongly recommended you choose a.

The whole issue is totally cultural difference.
Moreover, if you like more TOP score of saolei.net shown on World Ranking, so the ranking is accurate? Just do it, there are no problem.

haha I'm sorry EWQMinesweeper, you haven't been here for a long time, so I forgot a little

now that's correct.
I have explained why some groups should not blaim Damien, in old days people should mail him to complain, but now you should upload replays by yourself. NOBODY THOUGHT YOU ARE CHEATER BECAUSE YOU ARE STILL ON THE WORLDRANKING, and YOU HAVE THE WAY TO UPLOAD YOUR SCORE. YES I PREFER c. now.
