So it's more work, in that the admin would have to manually start a new group for each month, but it can also be reset more often if necessary.

I'm still testing it, and it won't be in Beta 2.1, but it will still make a showing in the vB2 version of the hack.

Your site did inspire me to start thinking about an optional cron job that could automatically rotate the scores each month/week/whatever.

Smile. That is the next thing i wanted to implement. Right now i reset the scores manually and every time i reset them, the script looks for the actual month ( with some intelligence check behind ) and writes the Hall of Fames file. The next thing will be to insert into the cron job the start of the proarcadeadmin.php with the parameters to reset the scores and everything will happen then automatically. So we are both on the same way of solving this problem.

On unix a cronjob and on windows an AT job ( you can use Auto2000 to have a nice GUI on windows for that ).

If you need someone to test your solution just tell me.
