Desc:
A real map that you play in a reasonable amount of time. HINTS: Press "r". Sometimes fewer up top is more than many down below. You don't have as much energy as you think you do. Each higher set of drones has 2x health but 4x Anti-Creeper.

How does someone play this map for 118 HOURS? Really?

That one score totally screwed up the average time for the map.

I think that the Median value would be more meaningful here.

I read it and I think the median would make more sense. Someone would have to submit more than 50 scores to throw the median way off like that (which would make the tampering more obvious).

He just did it again for Sharknadopalypse!, by submitting a single 3000 minute time. Now the AVERAGE time for the map is 83 minutes, while the mediain is still only about 35 minutes.

you could ask V to snip those scores, i think he may be willing since it is messing with the calculation.
hopefully those score can still show, but not count to the final sum.
