Ok, with my latest flash, Salty Swamp (http://www.newground..m/portal/view/25197
2
) I have a co-author, he helped with scripts and did the majority of voice acting. On the left it says Authors of the flash. To start with and for a couple of days I was above my co-author named "Jerma" but now all of a sudden myself and him have switched places and he is now placed on top.

Why did this happen? Because now people think Jerma created the movie, when it was I who made and submitted it.

Anyone know why?

I think it actually puts you at the bottom, example:

I was on top for the first 2 days, only recently did it decide to switch places.

There is always a sure-fire way to know who actually submitted the movie and, as you say, know who's "movie" it is. I watched the movie (good job!) and I voted. The screen saying how much my vote was worth, etc. displayed only your name. This means that it was obviously your movie and not the other author's.

To answer your original question: Why his name is on top?

I do not know. Maybe it's a new system or maybe it's an error. I wouldn't worry too much about it though.
