Weekly Leaderboard Reset

The weekly leaderboard reset occurred last night, with the usual minor delays due to our system's usual spikes in traffic. This year's reset happened without major incident, with no reported lag issues or errors on our end. We did have to make a few last-minute adjustments to the scoring system, however, due to an unusual spike in activity during the last hour of the week.

The main issue was that a few particularly skilled players were accumulating a disproportionate amount of points due to a series of strategic play decisions. After reviewing the data, we decided to adjust the scoring system to favor more casual play, and to introduce a cap on the amount of points that could be accumulated during the final 30 minutes of the week. This should help to promote a more balanced playing field, while still allowing for some degree of competition and reward for the most active players.

In terms of technical changes, we updated our scoring system to include a new " bonus round" that will be active next week, and tweaked the system to reduce the impact of lag on score calculations. We also updated our analytics and logs to help us identify and prevent similar issues in the future. The rest of the reset went smoothly, and we're looking forward to the new week's activity.
