Hello lunatics,
as already announced, I now activated the new feature to merge multiple accounts of a player into one.
That means, all psn accounts of one player (that I know of) are merged into one primary account as far as the ranking lists for time attack are concerned.
For example I use the minimum laptimes and add up the efforts (deathcount, ...).
The player stats, the history lists and the speed weekend pages are still separate, but on the bottom of the player stats pages you can see the alternate accounts if they are available. To check it out, you may try e.g. my account, misslabel5 or NinjaAtHome.
The merge wasn't exactly an easy task. It was the biggest change since the site is online and it involved going away from pure realtime calculation to precalculating intermediate results to get acceptable performance.
But in the end it worked and as a nice side effect, the general response time on the affected pages was cut in half (or even less: feels good, try it!).
Another side effect though is that your manual updates on the realtime pages are not immediately visible everywhere.
It takes a little time to regenerate the precalculated results. But don't worry, its usually less than 5 minutes. During that time you see "(TA updating)" instead of "(TA)" in the status line at the bottom of the pages.
The most prominent changes for the most popular fastest vehicles on original tracks summed leaderboard are probably, that PROUDRANKEDRACER vanished from the list to make room for the primary account NinjaAtHome at rank 31 (which was the primary motivation for that feature) and that misslabel5 entered the arena at rank 47, because now, with the alternate accounts she has times on every track.
I really hope you like it. And if you want your accounts merged, too: just tell me (e.g. via the contact form).
