Leader Board Problem
In this thread I would like to address a problem regarding the leader board. I recently achieved 4th place on three bridges. I later found out that this rank was only being displayed properly on my device and on some of my friends, but would not show in websites like tf.lforo.com which present tables with the current best riders. I contacted support from the website owners, who replied by saying that the problem originated within the ubisoft servers. Having said that, I would greatly appreciate any form of reply and furthermore investigation of the problem, although I am sure that this problem has been brought up by other riders.
Thanks for your attention GER-GR-Kolli

Note, that there are millions of player profiles and therefore all rankings need to be cached.
There are different levels of caching. Local, the server with your profile and the master server (there are maybe more).
In addition to caching, the rankings need to be synchronized between these databases.
Synchronization between your local device and your online profile will be very fast, while synchronization between the profile servers and the master server will be done only once a week.
Websites like tf.lforo.com and trials.bonxy.net also needs to cache its databases. Otherwise they risk being blocked by RedLynx. And it is also not known from which server these sites access their data.
Trials Frontier had in the past repeatedly major problems with caching data. Perhaps there is currently a problem again..

I understand the points that you make, but I achieved this record about 1 month ago, so given the master servers update once a week, my ranking should have been updated. I also noticed that carterclem7 who is currently displayed as 5th on my device, should be ranked 2nd. Furthermore, carterclem7 achieved 2nd place about 3 months ago and is still displayed as 5th. Having said the above, it is obvious that the servers are problematic. I hope that the developers look into this matter and fix the servers.
Thanks for taking the time to reply GER-GR-Kolli

I thought providing proof for the problem, that is being discussed in this thread, would raise awareness and maybe lead to a solution. This screenshot was taken on my device. It is clearly visible that I am ranked 4th on the map three bridges. As I said carterclem7 has a much better time than mine and is below me.
