Local scores shows other person profile picture and flags
Type
Cosmetic
Bug description
After importing a offline score from stable that has, let's say, "mrekk" as its player name, when logging into Lazer and seeing the local leaderboard, the game shows mrekk profile picture and flag as he was the one that originally set the score, even tho it was a offline score.
I noticed that after importing my scores using the setup wizard, that's when I noticed the local score confused a local score of mine in this same map with the name "gigi", with the player GIGI. The same happened when I imported this single "mrekk" replay into lazer.

Not sure what you're hoping for. Are you saying you set a local score and used the username "mrekk" and expect it to show no avatar because it was your local score?
Yes, it is something that i am used to since I came from stable, and I really don't know if that is supposed to be like that. It can be quite misleading seeing another's player pfp/flag in your local score, at least that's a opinion I heard from a few people after showing this, since in stable you can't see that and it is normal for people to use a random username while playing offline. I noticed that on lazer you can't change your username while offline so it might be a way to fix it, but the problem here is only the imported scores, and since a lot of people will certainly use the import tool, I do think it will be confusing for a lot of them.
To add to this: If you've changed your username in the past and someone else took your old username, your older scores will show the other person's profile picture and country flag.
Yes. There is nothing we can do about that. Old replays have no other means of identifying the player than the username.
Going to bump this in priority. The longer we wait on this the more people are going to have issues due to username changes etc.
Probably as simple as adding a user_id to the replay export header data?
Or if the issue is only with scores set while logged out, mark them as such in realm and never display an avatar.
