   Hello,
   I'm using a string based score in my game "Cannon Defense" and the result is:

   

   Should I change to int type?

   Nope, CocosLive has the option for string, int and something else for the type of scores.
   Riq, could you answer this? should I move to integer type score?

   Hi Natan, it does let you use string, but i can't think a case where you would like that since it will order comparing each ascii character...

   I assume you are ordering highest on top, so because in the first character 2 is higher than 1, it goes on top.

   EDIT: Well unless you use some kind of grading for the score like in US exams (?) like A,B,C,D,E ;)
