Hi Ran,
I am not doing it the YAML way. I am defining my SCF through Hector API as
below

================================================================
ThriftCfDef cfDef = HFactory.createColumnFamilyDefinition(ksName, "SCF")
cfDef.setColumnMetadata(...)
cfDef.setColumnType(ColumnType.SUPER)
cfDef.setSubComparatorType(ComparatorType.TIMEUUIDTYPE)
================================================================

And this is the structure of the SCF:
================================================================
"key1" :
          "superCol1":
                    SubColName1 (TimeUUID) : null
                    SubColName2 (TimeUUID) : null
                    SubColName3 (TimeUUID) : null
          "superCol2":
                    SubColName4 (TimeUUID) : null
                    SubColName5 (TimeUUID) : null
                    SubColName6 (TimeUUID) : null
================================================================

I now try to retrieve the data as below, but for both reverse = true |
false, it's only the order of supercolumns that changes. The subcolumns
always come in the same order - oldest to newest

================================================================
RangeSuperSlicesQuery#setRange (null, null, reverse, Integer.MAX_VALUE) //
reverse = true | false
================================================================

Anything I am doing wrong here?
