Description

When running the autoupdate from loading a set, each update will override the "Best of" data in the program with StartGG’s data, even if the user previously corrected this issue (mostly due to StartGG is throwing out garbage data during offline events).

Research direction

Trace the autoupdate path that runs when loading a set and identify where StartGG’s “Best of” value replaces the program’s current value. Reproduce the issue with a manually corrected value, including the offline-event case described here. Done means autoupdating preserves the user’s correction instead of overwriting it.
