I've been using GPL Rank from a machine here at work and I'm getting ready
to begin using GPL from home again. My question, and it may be a stupid one,
is that when I go home, will the player.ini I submit over-write any of my
records with slower times?

In other words, does GPL Rank always count the fastest lap times? The next
time I submit my .ini file , it will defintley have no times for most
tracks. Do I need to back up my player.ini from work and take it home?

Take your work player.ini and put it in your home computer, or from home, use
the GPLRank *Restore Your Player.ini* command to overwrite your home player.ini
with your work player.ini

Since you can correct warp times by re-submitting your player.ini, I
would say that yes, you best times will be overwritten when you submit
from home.

However, from GPLRank you should be able to restore your player.ini
from your work to your house and back (the "restore your player.ini"
feature). As long as you restore the player.ini with all your PB's
before you set a new one on either machine, you could probably use
this to keep the two in sync.

If you do get the two messed up, you can always edit the files and
manually "re-sync" them.

It says 'Deleting old records', so this is a definite yes. The only
way btw to do it.
