The leaderboard is just wrong - Stalker Trials

The Bearded Ladies had this response, to clearify some of the things brought up here:

There are two things going on in this screenshot. The first is that names matched to the scores have been swapped around. This is a UI bug that has been fixed and will be deployed soon.

The other is the mismatch betwen “Your best score” and the one on the leaderboard. Since MasterBjorn1337 seems really good at the stalker trials I do not question the score at all. The only thing I can see happening here is that the higher score was achieved while offline. This can sadly happen even if you start out online and
your connection drops at some point. The reason for this is:

In order to make it a bit harder for cheaters (not letting them have all the time they want offline to edit savedata etc) we do not upload local scores to the tables. So in order to get onto the tables you have to be online while playing.

However we did not want people to loose progress if their internet connection goes down, so we still store your best local
score and use it for your progress (unlocked stars). Sadly this have not been communicated well enough in the UI and we will see what we can do to make it clearer.

If this was the case you should be able to spot it by not being taken to the leaderboards directly after the score screen.

Cheers,
David
