Funny GPL Rank behaviour

I submittet my player.ini file again yesterday to update my GPL Rank after a blistering practice lap at Rouen (well, relatively speaking:), but when I went into the history page i found out that my new handicap was 4 and half seconds slower than my previous time. I have not reinstalled anything, so my player.ini file should be the same as I used last time i submitted laptimes. Weird... -- Olav K. Malmin remove .spam when replying

Don't know the answer Olav, but the possiblities are: there is a bug in the program, good chance ;-). You deleted a warped time in your player.ini since Jan 04/00 and forgot, or someone at GPLRank deleted your times between now and Jan 04 for having a warp time that was under the current WR(you should have recieved email notification of this) -- Don Scurlock Vancouver,B.C. GPLRank -5.40 Come see how you rank, at the GPLRank site http://gplrank.ringlord.com/

I have neither. Maybe I should just try to submit the file again and see what happens, or drive faster :) Thanks for the reply! -- Olav K. Malmin remove .spam when replying
