In the change to make standings per-group instead of per-server, I ripped out some of the code that meant that a submission made at contest time X would only become visible (in standings) to another contestant when their contest time was >= X, even if that meant holding back information until later.

Supporting this will require each server to maintain a separate standings table for each user. The performance impact will need to be checked as standings updates are one of the slower parts of abacus.

    If this is tackled, bugs 33 and 34 should be re-tested as they were never fundamentally fixed, just closed because they no longer manifest without the time-warped standings.
