Red face im confused

Ok so i got this email telling me i had won the different BG battle

Hello Mishelly,

Many thanks for your participation in BioRUST battle id #193
(different BG)! We're sending you this e-mail because the wait is now
over and the battle has left the voting stage. A grand total of 4
submissions have been received for this battle and 14 vote(s) have
been cast by other members.

After carefully counting all of these, our system has established
that you have won! As you will be able to see below, 5 vote(s) have
been counted for your entry -- that's 1 more than the closest
runner-up. You have been awarded your medal for display on the BioRUST
main Web site and your ranking has been updated too. Congratulations!

1st place > Mishelly (5 votes)
2nd place > DAL (4 votes)
3rd place > simulatedmind (3 votes)

But when i log-in and go to this battle it has DAL as the winner, im confused

If you look at the contest page BioRUST.com :: Your Source for Top Notch Photoshop Tutorials & Downloads! it says

1st place > DAL (6 votes)
2nd place > Mishelly (5 votes)
3rd place > simulatedmind (3 votes)
4th place > kokopedal (2 votes)

So maybe the mail went out before the voting was finished or maybe it was a typo? I don't know. I thought your entry was really good too Mishelly.

My Participation Statistics still says no wins even though it says I won the battle on the battle page. I don't know if it's a forum problem or what.

Maybe one of the mods could let us know what's up?

Hello to both of you,

I finally had the time and courage to try and figure that one out. It turns out that there was a serious fault/possible exploit in the system that affected your battle in particular. In addition, after carefully recounting all ballots, I am proud to announce that Mishelly did win that battle, as originally believed. Everything should be back to normal now.

As always, thank you for reporting this issue. A serious bug has been resolved as a result of your input.

I'm having a problem sort of like DAL had. When I view the battle page, the far right column of my participation is right (I guess) with 100% win percentage after I apparently won the King of the Hill FFA (#203). But the far left column shows zero wins.

BTW, what's the medal do?

Thanks in advance.

Hi chuggs,

I have made some quick fixes, are things any better now? I'm surprised that you have been the first to report this, as everybody's win count must have been way off.

Thank you,


The Eagle.

It was only one win, but one is better than none. Thanks for looking into it and fixing the situation, Eagle.
