hi, im not sure if i am the only one with this problem, there are alot of people that seem to be able to get times and it looks like the server saves them, but when i try to set one, i get the error as follows in the image:

Cheers.

I've noticed this happens a lot and not only on this map, but a few others as well. It would be great if it could be fixed, i also have a screenshot of this happening on another map (surf_forbidden_ways_ksf) http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=802951247

Seems like a database problem, although not too sure. Happened to me on Fast bonus aswell but managed to fix itself over time, seems to be something like the old data base problem where players wouldn't get points for finishing maps @Skyprah

cheers to those for checking out the thread, i have been doing some more testing and it looks like the problem occurs on any map that has a bonus for me, how bad it could be for any other players i couldnt tell you

i have finally found the problem!!

chibi came up with the idea that it may have been the extra characters i append to the end of my username so sure enough i removed them and the bonus then gave me a rank and points, but i wondered why, then it hit me.

i decided to fiddle with a little database i have at home, i figured out that it depends on what database collation is used, if the default it used (which it almost always is for ckSurf) it will not accept a large majority of what it defines as 'illegal characters', so the append at the end of my name for example will cause bonus times to be invalid, not sure why i can get normal map times though.

in any case, should anyone else be having the same issue, they need to remove any characters that could be considered illegal in text form and it will work.

Case closed.

also thanks to chibi for pointing it out for one but putting me on the train of thought.
