Tony the Tiger, Oops I screwed you up, sorry. Do what I said but after you have finished reregistering "Tony Schuck" as your Playername you need to search the Metaverse under your Nickname "Tony The Tiger" not your Playername "Tony Schuck". One final thing. If you did submit your score under the name "Tony the Tiger" (ie by typing in "Tony the Tiger" where it asked for your Alias on the Score Submission Screen)all is not lost. All you have to do is reregister (using the proced

Dark Assassin, Obi Wan Kenobi is right. But for those of you whose Nickname is different from your Playername remember that Alias=Playername; and not either your Name or your Nickname. Tony the Tiger, Did you submit your score under a different playername 1st as Gengsta thinks you might have? If so this is the problem. If not, are you absolutely positive that you typed in "Tony Schuck" where it asked for your Alias on the submission screen. I know a lot of people think that Ali

Understanding Names, Nicknames, Player names, Registered Names & Alias for Newbies in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I'm pretty much a Newbie myself and the most confusing thing for me was all the different types of names everyone has and what they mean. The post on how to submit scores helps but I don't think it is as clear as it can be; so I decided to post this to help newbies. Maybe there is a post somewhere else on this topic but I couldn't find it. Since I'm a Beginner myself I may have this wrong in which case I hope a Veteran Player will correct me. If you click on my name at the top of this p

BlueSteel; you have a Score of 11195 and a Ranking of 415; I have a score of 11029.6 and a Ranking of 2136. For this to be right ther would have to be 1720 players with scores between 11030 and 11194. I find this highly unlikely.

To understand my problem click on BlueSteel's name in his message. You will see that his Metaverse Score is 11195 and his Ranking is 408. Now click on my name in this message and you will see that my Metaverse Score is 11029.6 (ie only 166 less than Bluesteel) but my ranking is 2360 (ie 1952 behind Bluesteel.

Thanks for the tips BlueSteel; but I don't think you uderstand my question. I am getting decent scores (387,2391,2589,10510) but my metaverse ranking score is only 89 and my ranking is 2360. My games have all been played in the last 2 months so it isn't a score degradation problem. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I've E-mailed Tech support but no positive feedback yet.

Oops, sorry, I see my Metaverse Ranking is now 2360. Someone please help me! This is so embarrassing and my Wife won't let me take this bag off my head until I get my proper ranking.

OK, so can anyone tell me why my "Listed score" is only 89 (ranking me at 2332) and indicates I've only played 2 games while my Score if you click on my name in this post it is 11000+ and shows me playing 4 games.

Thanks Gerakken; that's the answer I wanted.

Damon, I don't think it is true that the metaverse only shows your best game. If this were true my score would be 10,500. Your Metaverse Overall score is also not really the total of all of your scores, or else your score would be 31452. Your actual Metaverse score is exactly 1/2 of this ie 15726. I think the more games you play the larger the divisor. I get no search result for "Bob Harris" when I rank by average score; I assume I have not played enough games.

Yes, my player name is Bob; but you can not search for scores by my player name of "Bob". Scores are sorted by Nickname (I think)not player name. My nickname (and name) is "Bob Harris". If you click on my nickname "Bob Harris" in this post you will be taken to the details of my scores using the player name "Bob". Just as if I were to click on your nickname in this post I will be taken to a page displaying the scores for Jane Smith using the playername "PontuisBruinPilot" (which also happens to

When I do a search on the metaverse under my name (Bob Harris) it displays that I have completed 2 games with an overall score of 89 (pitiful). But when I click on my name to get details it displays my 4 true scores of 387, 2391, 2589, and 10510. Can anyone explain this to me?

Ray Chua, actually the submission screen asks you for your "alias" not your "player name" (which I think may br confusing) but yes I did key in Harrybanana. I note below this though, that just to the left of my EMail address, you have to key in your name; does this have to be your player name as well?

Oh yeah, I disabled my firewall and protection software before I submitted. If the submission is successful should I get a message telling me this?

Me too; exact same thing with my first game. And I am registered. Can anyone tell us what we are doing wrong please.
