Reduce ibproArcade best scores of all time..
 

ibProArcade reduce best Score of all Time to keep arcade competitive..

All the ranks are kept in tact but the best Score of all Time are achievable again.

I made this add-on from bairy`s v3arcade version..
Thanks goes to him for the main code !!!!!

It's all done by a single cron job.

Upload reduce_best_scores.php to /includes/cron
Set a new scheduled task.

This one runs on the first of each month:

Varname: reduce_best_scores

Title: Reduce Best Scores of all Time.

Day of week: *
Day of month: 1
Hour: 0
Minute: 4

Active: Yes
Log: up to you
Filename: ./includes/cron/reduce_best_scores.php

Product: ibProAcade for vBulletin
Save

By default the scores are reduced by 10%.
If you want to change this percentage, change the 10 to whatever you like on line 9..
$scorechange = 10;

Important note: This script will reduce the scores by 10% each time you run it, manually or on cron.

If you want to delete all (best scores of all time),, set the $scorechange to 100;

Enjoy !!

sweet man, well done :)

i get error but i think it is from my side

What did the error say ??

wudnt the person who got the best score of all time be p*ssed off if ONLY his score is reduced and some other person is at the top ? Or did I not understand this properly?

This should explain the idea of just reducing...

are u gonna relase it at vb.org ?

Is this the improved version of this one? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=131417

Curious about a fix for the games that require the lowest score to win like Minesweeper...?

I had a v3a version of this (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=124879) that worked with reverse-scoring (lowest is best) too. Any plans to fix this ipB version?

excellent - thank you
