gsf, I have three suggestions for the status, update and similar reports.

1. For last-entry=N, increase N by the submission ordinal, so that it accurately reflects the score reduction should another player submit an entry which doesn't trump any submission of the current holder of last-entry. Of course, the player's total score should remain unchanged.

2. Add an asterisk to the "summary section" to flag the last submission. Placement immediately to the left of the appropriate ER/EP/ED value should work well.

3. Remove the last submission flag, the asterisk, from the rarity field of the puzzle listing. The rarity rank can then be shown there for the last submission.

g.r.emlin checks the forum every 5 minutes, adds any entries, and then updates the results thread
so the results thread is as current as an explicit ::: status ::: request
