Kongregate High Scores Issues (new stats to be tracked and some fixes)

[antiaverage]

NOTE: The following is something only Zanzarino can do; this is NOT simply a Kongregate issue

I play via the Kongregate portal because of the integrated score tracking and leader boards (the integrated chat is also nice). Unfortunately, the Kongregate High Scores have been left in the dust by the many wonderful updates to the game. Here I am going to list the updates that need to be made to the High Scores tables on Kongregate.

It would be nice to track arena wins based on arena level:

• Bronze Arena Victories
• Silver  Arena Victories
• Gold  Arena Victories
• Platinum  Arena Victories

The PvP High Scores are currently not separated by PvP1 and PvP2. It would be nice to split these into:

• PvP 1 Victories
• PvP 2 Victories

I believe the "Level 5 elementals defeated" should read (please advise if incorrect):

• Level 4 elementals defeated

There is currently no representation for:

• Level 0 elementals defeated

The False God wins are currently labeled as "Fake gods defeated." This confuses some players and is also a mismatch. It would be nice to have it properly labeled as:

• False Gods defeated

Thank you for taking the time to read this request. Please do not use this thread to discuss the pros and cons of using the Kongregate portal versus the main site. This thread is intended to bring attention to the outdated nature of the Kongregate High Scores and hopefully drum up support to have them updated as time permits.

I'm pretty sure that these need to be addressed  via Kongregate and not here.

Kongregate has done something badly? :O

Quick, let's post on this completely unrelated website!

Sorry to say antiaverage but this forums has no relation to Kongregate (Other then the game is on the site) and has no power of what happens on Kongregate.

Kongregate is not in error. Zanzarino set up the original High Score tables on Kongregate, they have just become out of sync with other game updates (this is also the case with the displayed cost for PvP 1 and PvP 2 on the Kongregate version, out of sync with the official site version). And while Kongregate does have the power to edit the titles on the existing High Score tables, adding new sections can only be done by the game creator, Zanzarino.

So, this is not exactly a Kongregate issue, this is a request to Zanzarino to take out the time to adjust and add features on Kongregate. I have also posted on Kongregate and understand why some of you have an issue with posting anything unofficial here. If this thread needs to be locked, I understand. That said, this seemed like the only reasonable way to get ahold of Zanzarino for a task that only he can perform. I understand he is busy with other things and this is certainly not urgent, but desirable.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Unfortunately, these problems still exist, would like to hear thoughts

To be honest, this is not something that these Forums really care about, as has been expressed when this was posted last year.  Also, to my understanding, these standings do not really matter to many players.  That being said, it is best surmised as you put it.

[...]this is certainly not urgent, but desirable.

Also, this is still only a Kongregate issue, as Kongregate is the only other medium where it should be played aside from the main site.

Thank you for your input.

This issue has to be handled by Zaznarino, not Kongregate, so I'm not sure how else to contact Zanzarino.

I think you can email zanzarino at game.elements@gmail.com

Not too sure though, check bottom left of title screen.

Also, I wonder which medium of Elements is more popular between Kongregate or the official website?
Personally I think Kong is a lot more fun because of its chat having many more active members and because of its highscores. I go on the official site way more often out of habit though anyway.
