Summary
Looks like If a player joins a game in progress, their system will incorrectly display all players with 0 points.
If this new player earns more points than all other players in a round, they will be ranked first, even if their total score is lower than the player with the highest total score.

Steps to Reproduce
I’ve found that the only way to reproduce this is by joining a “32 Player Zone Wars” session that’s already in progress and then scoring more points in a single round than someone else scores in the following round.
However, this is rather difficult to accomplish.
Expected Result
There are four players:
Droia – 500 points
Liyability – 400 points
Benilily – 300 points
Zoico – 200 points
If a player joins a game in progress, their system will incorrectly display all players with 0 points.
If this new player earns more points than all other players in a round, they will be ranked first, even if their total score is lower than the player with the highest total score.
For example:
The round begins:
Droia – 500 points
Liyability – 400 points
Benilily – 300 points
Zoico – 200 points
AvidJIPPlayer – 0 points
The round concludes, and AvidJIPPlayer earns more points this round than everyone else:
AvidJIPPlayer – 10 points
Droia – 509 points
Liyability – 409 points
Benilily – 302 points
Zoico – 206 points
Observed Result
If this new player earns more points than all other players in a round, they will be ranked first, even if their total score is lower than the player with the highest total score.

Additional Notes
This issue is not present on the map shown in this video: https://youtu.be/-8Xr73Fsj3s. Notice how the scores reset to zero at the end of each round, then correctly update to show the players’ final positions.
However, on my map, the scores do not reset, resulting in incorrect leaderboard positions. This is demonstrated here: https://youtu.be/rQJZvG3Vxwo
