Not sure if this is just a visual bug or I'm actually being robbed of Gold rank, but I've seen others get Gold from Rankings when I didn't win 1st so...
That's the copper reward IIRC so looks like you were robbed. I am getting this type of result in about half of the contests participate in across all the campaigns that offer them.
I had a similar situation (didn't record it) occur to me as well during the Celebration of Lliira event for the "Light up the Night" contest in Protector's Enclave. I moved to a less populated instance and I didn't come in first even though I was the only person listed on the scoreboard. My guess is you are competing with the whole map of players as opposed to the instance only? Maybe a moderator or a developer can let us know if this is working as intended or not.
It only occurs to me in Twilight Run. I do not recall seeing it in any other contests in other events but if it does happen I will report it, but since I do not have this happen to me in Monsters on Ice or Fishing Contest it is an individual contest issue.
