    You're 100% right Spinal

    Not much we can do. Just wait it out and re-release if your track bombed when it didn't deserve to. Kid m p c, MentalHobbit, AudioAdditive, TheElmonator and a bunch of other builders released tracks during this window and they all disappeared into the ether when they would have normally made it to the 48 hours and highest rated this week.
    Agreed, when its more than 24hrs it certainly effects not just a track, but the feeds as a whole. Its an unfortunate situation and one that RL are aware of and are no doubt working to resolve. I dont have any further info to offer so there's really not much more I can tell you (or that they can tell us), but if I do hear any news, I'll be sure to add it to this thread for you guys.

    Oddly, I think Redlynx would've been on this issue quick, but as soon as Ubi bought them out, they have to focus on new games only, so never mind those loyal players still playing Evo.

    It isnt that straightforward and the issue certainly doesnt reflect Redlynx's commitment to the loyal players. Obviously its taking longer for this to be corrected than they would like, but that doesnt mean they arent trying to get it fixed as quickly as possible.

    Im surprised theres no `fix the bug` action on TC.
    What a way to welcome back great designers that left before for other reasons.
    Hey Tweed, maybe TC is broken cause you havent released a track, release a track! You never know eh!?

    Fortunately I didn't release a track in this window ( it has affected one of mine before and I don't want it to happen again ) I just felt bad for those who have done so.
    Thanks for your comment mate.

    Re: Voting system down, can it be predicted?

    [quyote="SP1NALFLU1D"]Just to show you how the voting system being down affects a track in 48hrs so badly that anyone who has ever put a lot of their time and creativity into a track and been burnt by this before will not release one while it is down.
    Let me just say I mean no disrespect to anyone who has released a track during this time and I mean that.....
    Check out 48 hrs right now ( 23.45 14 sept 2013 in England )and tell me how many creators you have heard of......zero was my answer.
    No one can tell me that just because the ratings are supposedly stored or still applied that this doesn't affect someone's creation.
    Thanks for your time.

    I case anyone is in any doubt, play HighPixel345's track which is in top spot in 48hr right now.......... I mean no disrespect, if anything I am getting Mr Pixel more plays on his/her track.[/quote]yeah ive noticed that to mate i haven't bothered putting a track on because seems like it will be a waist of time

    Re: Track Central broken?

    This is extremely discouraging. My track somehow received 1 download/rating and made it into the 48 hour feed for a bit, but now its gone. I hope I don't sound greedy but I expected a little more from a skill game that took me months to make.
