"up" link & mail notifs

I've noticed a delay in the upper banner's "up" link, and for mail notifs (didn't receive mails for 1st places since Seance's twinhku)
Is it the same for all, and have I got a problem with my own mail ? (notifs are rejected by my main mailbox -my provider is fighting spamming- so I'm using seznam.cz which automatically forward mail to my main mailbox)
And if yes, anybody knows another site which forwards automatically mail ?

I think the "if first place is taken from you" notification has been broken for years. I've had it turned on and the last time i've gotten notification was two years ago. It didn't work for the recent spacefbg tar recorded where i had first place before (and now i still do, but perhaps not for long.)

My user's cfg is "any score which takes 1st place", not the one you're mentioning

No, I posted a high score and the site gave me bunches of errors. I copied it and sent it to Zwaxy.

How bizarre!
I have confirmed some scores yesterday and when you look at the confirm link, there is no confirm for Friday, 14th

ZTnet are apparently moving stuff around or something. As per usual, they've probably buggered something up.

another problem: the submital of the 1rst place warlords score is missing
The file you requested, /inp/sjv_warlords_67625_mame36.zip, does not exist.
The file has probably been moved to a new location. Please inform the webmaster that the link to /inp/sjv_warlords_67625_mame36.zip on

What's to bet that they've changed servers, and everything that was uploaded during the switch, has been lost? That's just a guess, of course, but it seems to have been what's happened.

Now all we need to do is fix the e-mail notifications. Probably something to do with the Python libraries or something. Zwaxy would probably know. God only knows where he is right now, though. (Probably another of his European 'vacations'

)
Guess I'll be e-mailing ZTNet then.

Ok, I've sent the e-mail to ZTNet. Now it's just a matter of waiting for the response.

Ok, I got a response from ZTnet, and E-mail notifications should hopefully be working soon. Something to do with a few DNS problems still to fix.

the personal notifications to those that had email addresses have been made for the recordings that were lost. scores and upload descriptions have been modified for the recordings to those that have not have email addrs, to effectively notify them. I figure i'll delete all the unconnected scores after a week.
