Score leaderboard doesn't make any sense
See original GitHub issueType
Game behaviour
Bug description
There are several issues with the leaderboard and the score system
- Has shown in the first screenshot, there is 2 distinc rank given for unknown reasons.
- The score itself is wrongly calculated, or at least i’m pretty sure of that. Why ? As you can see in the 2 screenshots next one to each other, i’m ranked lower than someone that as performed worse than me. And i have that issue with pretty much all songs. I’m using one where i have a full combo as an example.
It does not matter that i have normalised scores or not, the issue remains. Proof in screens. And no it’s not about mods either. Even without any mods, i still get that issue.

I’m not sure about that one. You can open a separate issue to track it if you would like. It would help if you can check whether this is a freak occurrence or if you can reproduce on other beatmaps by setting new scores.
