I tried to list all the 1st places of 2006, and I realized that the "maximum displayed hits" value is no longer allowed over 200. Is it correct or am I doing something wrong? Thank you in advance

It's best to email me using the 'EMail' link in the top right corner of the MARP site - then I'll know something needs fixing.

Is 999 enough? The problem is that the server starts timing out if you ask for too many results at once.

I don't know how many 1st places have been uploaded in 2006 (and still are 1st). I tried to list them to vote for the best 2006 replay (I don't remember all the inps I've seen in first 2006 months ;) )
Is it a problem about traffic or about the dimension of the query results? If it's a traffic problem you could limit at 200 for normal queries, ad leave unlimited for no-screenshot queries.
If it's a query results's size problem I think you should use the limit that let the system work

i think the reason for the limit discovery is that people want to do this query

http://marp.retrogames.com/index.cgi?mo ... _year=2006

and 200 isn't enough, but i've also rarely seen a time out even before the limit. Though i don't think we want to croud znet with timeout issues, so maybe the limit is good.

* EDIT looks like this doesn't get limited by 200 anymore :)

just click the "1st" or "Top3" links in the navigation bar of the main MARP site.

I download the Top3 page to my HD once a month or so. It is an easy way to view the top 3 scores for each game.

But you can't see order of submissions that way Rick. Plus you miss silly submission comments such as all clear, no miss...
