OpenFeint highscores

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

I just want to start out by saying thank-you all for the help that you gave me so far!

I have some problems posting up the highscore… I have been using peach pellen’s tutorials and they are proving to be very helpful! I got everything to work except for posting up the highscores…
Here is some code

 local onDeviceGO=true  
 if string.sub(system.pathForFile("Icon.png", system.ResourceDirectory),1,6)=='/Users' then  
 onDeviceGO=false  
 end  
  
 lbID = "123456" -- i am using my real leaderboard id, just for a subsitute for the forum!  
  
  
 function setHighScore( lbID, points )  
 if onDeviceGO then  
 openfeint.setHighScore( 123456, \_G.time) --Edited ID here for you ;)  
 else  
 print("highscore called")  
 end  
 end  
 timerGO = timer.performWithDelay(2000, setHighScore, 1)

The global variable _G. time shows how much time has passed since the game has started, and i want that to be posted up to the leader board… and i have been using my test user on open feint.

Hey there,

I’m not sure why this isn’t working, I built an app using almost identical code only a few days ago.

Also, you left your ID in one spot above, because it appears twice - I’ll edit that out for you in a moment.

Just to make sure - have you added yourself as “Test User” in your openfeint account? If not your scores wont be submitted.
