Why is it that I see 4 lives on the top left on the runs? (technically 5)?

I only have 2 (techincally 3)?

Help please?

Your game is set up properly. The starting life option is incorrect on the leaderboard runs. However, it doesn't affect the runs in any way (the player doesn't drop below what would have been the 0 life mark), so it was allowed (though not preferred)

Ok, thanks.

I've been grinding for ages and finally got a successful 1cc with the default 3 lives on easy. Will post it soon.
