It can be unfair. But here's what I would do. Let's just say it looks like this:

That looks kinda unfair to me, considering they have the SAME SCORE. This is how I believe they should do it. If there's two or more of the same score, they should be placed in the same position. Like this:

3|Superneo|1000|Gold Trophy

5|Gameboy42690|950|Silver Trophy
(I wish I was on the high score list >_>)
Note that I made these names up (except for mine, of course) Also note that there are two 3rd place people, who both have Gold rather than one in 3rd and the other with the same score in 4th, with different trophies.
Although, that would be rather difficult in games with a maximum score like Grand Theft Ummagine (
http://www.neopets.com/gamescores.phtml?game_id=212 )where the top 32 scores are identical. I don't think TNT would want to give that many people a gold trophy for a game. The next best way would be to do it in order of time submitted. Problems may arise in that, too, if people send scores at exactly the same time, but the chances of them submitting a score in the exact same millisecond is fairly rare. Possible, yes, but rare. In that event, the username that comes last in the alphabet should be first. But only then. ^_^
It may be more difficult to track people's scores as well as their times. I wouldn't know. TNT should at least try it, in my opinion.
