Top50/Highscores Access [Kongregate]

[Wolfunit]

Ok, so you know elements on kongregate don’t tell players that they have to click "Quest" to then access Top50/High scores. I was thinking can we just access these features without getting directed to Main site if we don't go through the Quest process? It would be much simple plus when players do click Top50* they get directed to main site, log-in and leaves their game open in kongregate not knowing their game on main site will not save. Players will then close the not saved progress main site tab/window and lose what they made. I think it changes were done you would have a lot of more players staying on elements through kongregate. About high scores I think it should be access without pressing Quest then high scores it just keeps people back.

i agree, plus it would save alot of questions that people ask about "how do i get to T50" or "Why can't i access T50?" Definitely would be a benefit than a migraine after explaining it (exaggeration) 50 billion times.

[bongoz]

+1 i totally agree with both of you guys

On a side note.... why do people submit to T50 multiple times?  Rude!

If you're talking about the weekly boards it's because the player who submits just wants to make sure he's still on the list if not he may change his/her deck from a farm to a grinding deck Or to see how if his/her friends are also on top50. If you are talking about All Time then that's a different case since players try to bump each other down, it's rather fun rage grinding for days even weeks when two people are trying to pass one another lol (Myself and jmdt did it). Oh and also to  see the pattern of which a players makes score with a given period and etc.

Incidentally, there are other ways to check your score aside from resubmitting.

Not everyone knows to do that also it's much easiler to re-submit to view the scores on top50.

Yeah right.  People just want to fill the list up with their name so they can feel like megalo-altruists.

You guys are really not staying on topic huh? it's not about how many times a person submits their score but to allow access to the highscores insted of using the quest process which many doesn't know.

I think Chromatophore makes a very relevant point.  Nobody wants to repeatedly play the same person in T50 and there are other options for viewing highscores.  It also takes away places from players near the bottom 50 who are trying to earn the satisfaction of seeing their scores posted.

[bongoz]

can we please stay on topic.

it's not about viewing the highscores its about being able to just click highscores instead of clicking quest and then highscores.

because a lot of lower score kongregate players do not know how to do this and some of them may be curious about who is in the highscores.

It is not about posting your score repeatedly it's about giving everyone the same chance but doing so through another process. Quick question do you even play elements on kongregate if not you wouldn't understand and your replys would be useless because it seems to me both of you, yourself and Chromatophore are on different pages.

Thanks bongoz for the input since you really know what this topic is about. As bongoz said Insted of accessing Highscores like this Quest > Highscores we would just like to be able to click Highscores without the time being spend clicking Quest since many players doesn't know this process. This also applies to Top50, we would like to just be able to click the button without the mainsite page being loaded which it directs us too.
