Missing from Eulerians list

Post by Konrad127123 »

I've solved 13 or the latest 25 problems, but I'm not listed on the Eulerians scoreboard (I have waited for it to update).

Another minor thing I've noticed is that harryh is listed as last solving a problem on 11th September (making him inactive), but he's solved problem 268, which has only been available since 11th December. (I realise he's a problem development team leader, so that may explain it, am just wondering whether that's the reason or whether there's a bug)

Thanks
harryh

That's odd; I'm not sure of the reason, but we'll look into it.

It does explain it: Usually, I mark problems as "solved" or "unsolved" in my account, depending on which problems' forums I wish to follow-up or keep an eye on (exploiting the feature that allows only unsolved problems to be listed).
My rank, as well as that of all the other team-members, is of course totally irrelevant. :)

Well, you are an Eulerian now Konrad127123 :D (though I'm still a bit puzzled by what caused it).

Thanks

If it helps: I submitted my answer to 276 (the newest "eulerian question") and then shortly afterwards submitted my answer to 251 (the question that had only just stopped being eulerian a few hours earlier). Depending on how the logic works I can just about imagine some sort of race condition existing e.g. if noone accessed the eulerians page at some particular point, so it didn't update. (Apologies if I'm talking rubbish.)
