Hello,

I want to report a bug with the Medal Ghosts not showing the correct time. In this case specifically on the track "DareDevil" by vojteek55. But this bug can happen on every track with a closed leaderboard. The track mentioned was Track of the Day on 25. November 2020. On this day I achieved a time of 37.225 before the leaderboard closed the next day. But afterwards I tried to get the gold medal on this track. So I hunted it after the leaderboard was closed and achieved a 35.998 (Gold Medal Time is a 36.000). Today somebody told me, that my ghost was used as the gold medal ghost on this track. Since my time was only .002 faster than the time you need for a Gold Medal, that totally makes sense. However, the Gold Medal Ghost doesn't show my 35.998 replay, instead it shows the 37.225 time. (You can see that on the images below)

This bug also occurs when you want to watch replays of past Track of the Days (or old Campaign Tracks). If someone improves their time after the leaderboard was closed, the ingame leaderboard on the left will show you the improved PB, but if you watch replay of this run you will see the PB which was set before the leaderboard was closed. If you click on the eye to add the Ghost to the track it will show the PB which was set after the leaderboard was closed.

See that the replays are actually different:

Experienced players might figure it out themselves, that it's because of the closed leaderboard. But for new players it might be very confusing (false hopes since they're faster than the ghost).Therefore, it's particularly problematic because especially the new player use these Ghosts.

Cheers,
Markus
